A Plotly is a Python library that is used to design graphs, especially interactive graphs. It can plot various graphs and charts like histogram, barplot, boxplot, spreadplot, and many more. It is mainly used in data analysis as well as financial analysis. plotly is an interactive visualization library.
Annotated HeatmapsAnnotated Heatmaps is the most important component of the heatmap as they shows additional information that associates with rows or columns in the heatmap. Annotation heatmaps will be represented as rows of grids through which multiple metrics can be compared to others.
Syntax: create_annotated_heatmap(z, x=None, y=None, annotation_text=None, colorscale='Plasma', font_colors=None, showscale=False, reversescale=False)
Parameters:
x: x axis labels.
y: y axis labels.
z: z matrix to create heatmap.
annotation_text: Text strings for annotations. Should have the same dimensions as the z matrix. If no text is added, the values of the z matrix are annotated. Default = z matrix values.
colorscale: heatmap colorscale.
Example:
Python3
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
import numpy as np
feature_x = np.arange(0, 10, 2)
feature_y = np.arange(0, 10, 3)
# Creating 2-D grid of features
[X, Y] = np.meshgrid(feature_x, feature_y)
Z = np.cos(X / 2) + np.sin(Y / 4)
fig = ff.create_annotated_heatmap(Z)
fig.show()
Output:
Defining ColorscaleIn plotly, colorscale or color chart is a flat physical object which have different types of colors. It can be set in this graph using the colorscale parameter.
Example 1:
Python3
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
import numpy as np
feature_x = np.arange(0, 10, 2)
feature_y = np.arange(0, 10, 3)
# Creating 2-D grid of features
[X, Y] = np.meshgrid(feature_x, feature_y)
Z = np.cos(X / 2) + np.sin(Y / 4)
fig = ff.create_annotated_heatmap(Z, colorscale='rainbow')
fig.show()
Output:
Example 2: Adding Custom Colorscale
Python3
import plotly.figure_factory as ff
import numpy as np
feature_x = np.arange(0, 10, 2)
feature_y = np.arange(0, 10, 3)
# Creating 2-D grid of features
[X, Y] = np.meshgrid(feature_x, feature_y)
Z = np.cos(X / 2) + np.sin(Y / 4)
custom = [[0, 'green'], [0.5, 'red']]
fig = ff.create_annotated_heatmap(Z, colorscale=custom)
fig.show()
