plotting - How to 2D-plot function in two varibles


I try to make a plot of a function in multi variables as in that paper arXiv:1312.1935, FIG. 2 .


Mathematica graphics


I tried some thing like:


k[s_,f_] = s + f;

ListPlot[Table[k[s, f], {s, -1, 1, 0.5}, {f, -1, 1, 0.5}]]

But it plotted k[s, f] on the y- axis. While I'd like to have s and f on the x and y axises.



There is also ContourPlot, or PlotRegion, but to my knowledge the function k[s,f] will be plotted as continuous regions, while i'd like to present it as points (with known values like in the FIG).


So any help ?




" If the data is 3D and the third entry is obtained by applying a function like k[s,f] to the first two entries (like data set dt3d below), then the function we use to style the data is slightly different:"


Actually I don't understand from here. I understand in the example of td and styleddt that in Style[{##} and k[##], that ## refers to the two variables which k is function of them.


But now I try to plot another function, like Y[s,f,d]= s+f+d;, with -1 < s < 1, f= 0.5, and -0.5 < d < 0.5, and I want to plot Y[s,f,d] only at -2 < Y < 0, or we can use Piecewise as before to know Y values.



Answer



Update: I guess you want to color a list of 2D points using a function like k[s,f]. You can Style the original data and use the resulting data with ListPlot to get something like Figure 2 in the linked paper.


dt = RandomReal[{-1, 1}, {1000, 2}];


The first 10 rows of dt:


TableForm[dt[[;; 10]], TableHeadings -> {None, {"s", "f"}}]

Mathematica graphics


styleddt = Style[{##}, PointSize[.02],
Piecewise[{{Orange, -1 <= k[##] <= 0}, {Green, .5 <= k[##] <= .9},
{Red, 1.2 <= k[##] <= 1.6}}, Blue]] & @@@ dt;
labels = {"-1<=k[s,f]<=0", ".5<=k[s,f]<=.9", "1.2<=k[s,f]<=1.6", "otherwise"};
colors = {Orange, Green, Red, Blue};
legend = Row[Style[##, "Panel", 18] & @@@ Transpose[{labels, colors}], Spacer[5]];


ListPlot[styleddt, DataRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}, Frame -> True,
ImageSize -> 500, AspectRatio -> 1, PlotLabel -> legend]

Mathematica graphics


If the data is 3D and the third entry is obtained by applying a function like k[s,f] to the first two entries (like data set dt3d below), then the function we use to style the data is slightly different:


dt3d = {##, k@##} & @@@ dt;

The first 10 rows of dt3d:


TableForm[dt3d[[;; 10]], TableHeadings -> {None, {"s", "f", "k[s, f]"}}]


Mathematica graphics


styleddata = Style[{#, #2}, PointSize[.02],
Piecewise[{{Orange, -1 <= #3 <= 0},
{Green, .5 <= #3 <= .9}, {Red, 1.2 <= #3 <= 1.6}}, Blue]] & @@@ dt3d;

We get the same picture as above using:


ListPlot[styleddata, DataRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}, Frame -> True,
ImageSize -> 500, AspectRatio -> 1, PlotLabel -> legend]


Original post:


Here are few alternative ways to use 2D plots / charts to visualize your data.


Graphics:


Graphics[{PointSize[Large],
{ColorData[{"TemperatureMap", {-2, 2}}][#3], Disk[{#, #2}, .1],
Black, Text[Style[#3, 14, Bold], {#, #2}]} & @@@ (Join @@
Table[{s, f, k[s, f]}, {s, -1, 1, 0.5}, {f, -1, 1, 0.5}])},
Frame -> True]

Mathematica graphics



MatrixPlot


MatrixPlot[Table[k[s, f], {s, -1, 1, 0.5}, {f, -1, 1, 0.5}], 
DataRange -> {{-1, 1}, {-1, 1}}, ColorFunction -> "TemperatureMap",
DataReversed -> True, PlotLegends -> Automatic]

Mathematica graphics


BubbleChart


BubbleChart[Labeled[Style[{#, #2, Abs@#3 /. 0. -> 1}, 
ColorData[{"TemperatureMap", {-2, 2}}][#3]], #3] & @@@ (Join @@
Table[{s, f, k[s, f]}, {s, -1, 1, 0.5}, {f, -1, 1, 0.5}]),

BubbleScale -> (1 &)]

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

plotting - Plot 4D data with color as 4th dimension

I have a list of 4D data (x position, y position, amplitude, wavelength). I want to plot x, y, and amplitude on a 3D plot and have the color of the points correspond to the wavelength. I have seen many examples using functions to define color but my wavelength cannot be expressed by an analytic function. Is there a simple way to do this? Answer Here a another possible way to visualize 4D data: data = Flatten[Table[{x, y, x^2 + y^2, Sin[x - y]}, {x, -Pi, Pi,Pi/10}, {y,-Pi,Pi, Pi/10}], 1]; You can use the function Point along with VertexColors . Now the points are places using the first three elements and the color is determined by the fourth. In this case I used Hue, but you can use whatever you prefer. Graphics3D[ Point[data[[All, 1 ;; 3]], VertexColors -> Hue /@ data[[All, 4]]], Axes -> True, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1/GoldenRatio}]
