我有一堆带有两组数据的交叉图,并且一直在寻找一种matploltib方法,用平滑的多边形轮廓突出显示它们的绘图区域.

目前我只使用Adobe Illustrator并修改已保存的情节,但这并不理想.例：

我很感激任何指针/链接到示例.

干杯

解决方法:

在这里,你有一个例子.我写了主要的想法,但显然,你可以做得更好.

简短说明：

1)你需要计算凸壳(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convex_hull)

2)使用船体,您可以对其进行缩放以保留所有数据.

3)您必须插入结果曲线.

第一部分是在http://wiki.scipy.org/Cookbook/Finding_Convex_Hull完成的.第二部分是微不足道的.第三个是非常通用的,你可以执行任何方法,有很多不同的方法来做同样的事情.我采用了@ Jaime的方法(Smooth spline representation of an arbitrary contour, f(length) –> x,y),我认为这是一种非常好的方法.

我希望它可以帮到你……
