如何使用全息视图可视化时间跨度？

Question

我最近遇到了holoviews作为 python 中很有前途的可视化库，并且作为一种实践，我想转移一些我现有的代码来看看它在hv. 我到达了一个我无法重新创建的给定情节。我想可视化一个时间轴或路线图，其中x轴的类型是类型pd.datetime并且y是分类的。像这样的东西：我应该使用什么元素？我应该如何定义部分的开始和结束位置？

Answer 1

HoloViews >= 1.13 现在有hv.Segments()。

这使得创建甘特图变得更加容易：

from datetime import datetime

import holoviews as hv

hv.extension('bokeh')

data = {

    'start': [datetime(2018, 1,  3), datetime(2018, 3,  3), datetime(2018, 7, 15)],

    'end': [datetime(2018, 1, 31), datetime(2018, 3, 30), datetime(2018, 9, 23)],

    'start_event': ['Event1', 'Event2', 'Event2'],

    'end_event': ['Event1', 'Event2', 'Event2'],   

}

df = pd.DataFrame(data)

hv.Segments(

    data=df,

    kdims=['start', 'start_event', 'end', 'end_event']

).opts(line_width=4., width=1000)

Answer 2

这听起来像你需要一个甘特图。

我正在使用hv.Curve()从时间起点到终点画一条线：

# import libraries

from datetime import datetime

import holoviews as hv

hv.extension('bokeh')

# drawing a simple line

line1 = hv.Curve([

    [datetime(2018, 1,  3), 'Event1'],

    [datetime(2018, 1, 31), 'Event1'],

])

# creating a dashed line

line2 = hv.Curve([

    [datetime(2018, 3,  3), 'Event2'],

    [datetime(2018, 3, 30), 'Event2'],

]).opts(line_dash='dashed')

# creating a black thicker line

line3 = hv.Curve([

    [datetime(2018, 7, 15), 'Event2'],

    [datetime(2018, 9, 23), 'Event2'],

]).opts(color='black', line_width=10.0)

# add all 3 lines together on 1 plot with the * symbol

# this creates an overlay

gantt_chart = (line1 * line2 * line3)

# change xlim and width of the whole chart and add xlabel

# just making the plot a bit nicer

gantt_chart.opts(

    width=800, 

    xlim=(datetime(2018, 1, 1), datetime(2018, 12, 31)),

    xlabel='start to stop',

    ylabel='',

)

如您所见，我还添加了一些选项作为示例来更改线条的样式并更改 x 轴的范围。

示例代码为您提供了此图：

另一种解决方案是生成此甘特图的更通用方法，它循环数据并为每个开始/停止点生成曲线：

# import libraries

from datetime import datetime

import holoviews as hv

hv.extension('bokeh')

# create sample data

data = [

    [datetime(2018, 1, 3), datetime(2018, 1, 31), 'Event1'],

    [datetime(2018, 3, 3), datetime(2018, 3, 30), 'Event2'],   

    [datetime(2018, 7, 15), datetime(2018, 9, 23), 'Event2'],

]

# loop over data to create a list with a line/curve for every start/stop point

all_lines_list = [

    hv.Curve([

        [row[0], row[2]],

        [row[1], row[2]],

    ]).opts(color='red') for row in data

]

# put all lines in an Overlay plot that can display all lines on 1 plot

gantt_chart = hv.Overlay(all_lines_list)

# make plot nicer

gantt_chart.opts(

    show_legend=False,

    width=800,

    xlim=(datetime(2018, 1, 1), datetime(2018, 12, 31)),

    xlabel='start to stop',

    ylabel='',

)
