移动平均过滤器怎么样?它也是一个单行程序，它的优点是，如果你需要矩形以外的东西，你可以很容易地操作窗口类型。一个n长的简单移动平均数组a:

lfilter(np.ones(N)/N, [1], a)[N:]

应用三角形窗口后:

lfilter(np.ones(N)*scipy.signal.triang(N)/N, [1], a)[N:]

注:我通常会在最后丢弃前N个样本作为假的，因此[N:]，但这是没有必要的，只是个人选择的问题。

高效的解决方案

卷积比直接的方法好得多，但(我猜)它使用FFT，因此相当慢。但是，下面的方法特别适用于计算运行平均值

def running_mean(x, N):
    cumsum = numpy.cumsum(numpy.insert(x, 0, 0)) 
    return (cumsum[N:] - cumsum[:-N]) / float(N)

要检查的代码

In[3]: x = numpy.random.random(100000)
In[4]: N = 1000
In[5]: %timeit result1 = numpy.convolve(x, numpy.ones((N,))/N, mode='valid')
10 loops, best of 3: 41.4 ms per loop
In[6]: %timeit result2 = running_mean(x, N)
1000 loops, best of 3: 1.04 ms per loop

注意numpy。allclose(result1, result2)为True，两个方法等价。 N越大，时间差异越大。

警告:虽然cumsum更快，但会增加浮点错误，这可能导致您的结果无效/不正确/不可接受

这里的评论指出了这个浮点错误问题，但我在回答中让它更明显。

# demonstrate loss of precision with only 100,000 points
np.random.seed(42)
x = np.random.randn(100000)+1e6
y1 = running_mean_convolve(x, 10)
y2 = running_mean_cumsum(x, 10)
assert np.allclose(y1, y2, rtol=1e-12, atol=0)

the more points you accumulate over the greater the floating point error (so 1e5 points is noticable, 1e6 points is more significant, more than 1e6 and you may want to resetting the accumulators) you can cheat by using np.longdouble but your floating point error still will get significant for relatively large number of points (around >1e5 but depends on your data) you can plot the error and see it increasing relatively fast the convolve solution is slower but does not have this floating point loss of precision the uniform_filter1d solution is faster than this cumsum solution AND does not have this floating point loss of precision

如果你选择自己生成，而不是使用现有的库，请注意浮点错误并尽量减少其影响:

class SumAccumulator:
    def __init__(self):
        self.values = [0]
        self.count = 0

    def add( self, val ):
        self.values.append( val )
        self.count = self.count + 1
        i = self.count
        while i & 0x01:
            i = i >> 1
            v0 = self.values.pop()
            v1 = self.values.pop()
            self.values.append( v0 + v1 )

    def get_total(self):
        return sum( reversed(self.values) )

    def get_size( self ):
        return self.count

如果所有的值都是大致相同的数量级，那么这将通过始终添加大致相似的数量级值来帮助保持精度。

出于教学目的，让我再添加两个Numpy解决方案(比cumsum解决方案慢):

import numpy as np
from numpy.lib.stride_tricks import as_strided

def ra_strides(arr, window):
    ''' Running average using as_strided'''
    n = arr.shape[0] - window + 1
    arr_strided = as_strided(arr, shape=[n, window], strides=2*arr.strides)
    return arr_strided.mean(axis=1)

def ra_add(arr, window):
    ''' Running average using add.reduceat'''
    n = arr.shape[0] - window + 1
    indices = np.array([0, window]*n) + np.repeat(np.arange(n), 2)
    arr = np.append(arr, 0)
    return np.add.reduceat(arr, indices )[::2]/window

使用的函数:as_strided, add.reduceat

更新:已经提出了更有效的解决方案，scipy的uniform_filter1d可能是“标准”第三方库中最好的，还有一些更新的或专门的库可用。

你可以用np。卷积得到:

np.convolve(x, np.ones(N)/N, mode='valid')

解释

The running mean is a case of the mathematical operation of convolution. For the running mean, you slide a window along the input and compute the mean of the window's contents. For discrete 1D signals, convolution is the same thing, except instead of the mean you compute an arbitrary linear combination, i.e., multiply each element by a corresponding coefficient and add up the results. Those coefficients, one for each position in the window, are sometimes called the convolution kernel. The arithmetic mean of N values is (x_1 + x_2 + ... + x_N) / N, so the corresponding kernel is (1/N, 1/N, ..., 1/N), and that's exactly what we get by using np.ones(N)/N.

边缘

np的模态参数。Convolve指定如何处理边缘。我在这里选择有效模式，因为我认为这是大多数人期望的运行方式，但您可能有其他优先级。下面是一个图表，说明了模式之间的差异:

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
modes = ['full', 'same', 'valid']
for m in modes:
    plt.plot(np.convolve(np.ones(200), np.ones(50)/50, mode=m));
plt.axis([-10, 251, -.1, 1.1]);
plt.legend(modes, loc='lower center');
plt.show()

仅使用Python标准库(内存高效)

只提供标准库deque的另一个版本。令我惊讶的是，大多数答案都使用pandas或numpy。

def moving_average(iterable, n=3):
    d = deque(maxlen=n)
    for i in iterable:
        d.append(i)
        if len(d) == n:
            yield sum(d)/n

r = moving_average([40, 30, 50, 46, 39, 44])
assert list(r) == [40.0, 42.0, 45.0, 43.0]

实际上，我在python文档中找到了另一个实现

def moving_average(iterable, n=3):
    # moving_average([40, 30, 50, 46, 39, 44]) --> 40.0 42.0 45.0 43.0
    # http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_average
    it = iter(iterable)
    d = deque(itertools.islice(it, n-1))
    d.appendleft(0)
    s = sum(d)
    for elem in it:
        s += elem - d.popleft()
        d.append(elem)
        yield s / n

然而，在我看来，实现似乎比它应该的要复杂一些。但它肯定在标准python文档中是有原因的，有人能评论一下我的实现和标准文档吗?
