径向动画图

Radial animated plots

我对 Baptiste Coulmont 的 this radial animated visualization(多年来法国每天的死亡人数)感到非常惊讶,我很想制作我自己的此类情节。

作者好像是用R写的不知直接在gnuplot中是否可行,还是需要用通用语言编程

以下内容可以作为 gnuplot 实现的起点。 为了动画检查以下 。自动调整量程时似乎存在剪裁极坐标图的问题,即 set rrange [0:*],当您设置固定范围时似乎不存在,例如set rrange [0:1000]。当然还有调整和改进的空间。

代码:

# create some random test data
# Gauss curve by specifing Amplitude A, position x0 and width via FWHM
GaussW(x,x0,A,FWHM) = A * exp(-(x-x0)**2/(2*(FWHM/(2*sqrt(2*log(2))))**2))
myTimeFmt = "%d.%m.%Y"
StartDate = "01.01.2018"
EndDate   = "31.12.2020"
t0=int(strptime(myTimeFmt,StartDate))
t1=int(strptime(myTimeFmt,EndDate))
SecPerDay = 3600*24
set print $Data
    do for [t=t0:t1:SecPerDay] {
        Date = strftime(myTimeFmt,t)
        y0 = rand(0)*200+400
        y1(t) = GaussW(t,strptime(myTimeFmt,"01.02.2020"),100,SecPerDay*30)
        y2(t) = GaussW(t,strptime(myTimeFmt,"01.04.2020"),300,SecPerDay*10)

    }

DaysInMonth(t) = int(strftime("%d",strptime("%m.%Y",sprintf("%02d.%04d",tm_mon(t)+2,tm_year(t)))-1))
DateToAngle(t) = tm_mday(t)/DaysInMonth(t)*30 + tm_mon(t)*30
MonthToAngle(m) = (m-1)*30    # m=1 to 12

结果:
