如果你已经有一个已知大小的数组

import numpy as np                                         
M=np.arange(12)
                                                               
avg=[]                                                         
i=0
while i<len(M)-2: #for n point average len(M) - (n-1)
        avg.append((M[i]+M[i+1]+M[i+2])/3) #n is denominator                       
        i+=1     
                                                                                                    
print(avg)

通过比较下面的解决方案与使用cumsum of numpy的解决方案，这个解决方案几乎花费了一半的时间。这是因为它不需要遍历整个数组来做cumsum，然后做所有的减法。此外，如果数组很大且数量很大(可能溢出)，cumsum可能是“危险的”。当然，这里也存在危险，但至少我们只把重要的数字加在一起。

def moving_average(array_numbers, n):
    if n > len(array_numbers):
      return []
    temp_sum = sum(array_numbers[:n])
    averages = [temp_sum / float(n)]
    for first_index, item in enumerate(array_numbers[n:]):
        temp_sum += item - array_numbers[first_index]
        averages.append(temp_sum / float(n))
    return averages

这里有许多实现这一点的方法，以及一些基准测试。最好的方法是使用来自其他库的优化代码。瓶颈。Move_mean方法可能是最好的方法。scipy。卷积方法也非常快，可扩展，并且语法和概念简单，但是对于非常大的窗口值不能很好地扩展。numpy。如果你需要一个纯numpy方法，Cumsum方法是很好的。

注意:其中一些(例如:瓶颈。move_mean)不是居中的，并且会转移你的数据。

下面是一个使用numba的快速实现(注意类型)。注意它确实包含移位的nan。

import numpy as np
import numba as nb

@nb.jit(nb.float64[:](nb.float64[:],nb.int64),
        fastmath=True,nopython=True)
def moving_average( array, window ):    
    ret = np.cumsum(array)
    ret[window:] = ret[window:] - ret[:-window]
    ma = ret[window - 1:] / window
    n = np.empty(window-1); n.fill(np.nan)
    return np.concatenate((n.ravel(), ma.ravel())) 

for i in range(len(Data)):
    Data[i, 1] = Data[i-lookback:i, 0].sum() / lookback

试试这段代码。我认为这样更简单，也能达到目的。 回望是移动平均线的窗口。

在Data[i-lookback:i, 0].sum()中，我放了0来指代数据集的第一列，但如果你有多个列，你可以放任何你喜欢的列。

如果你想仔细考虑边缘条件(只从边缘的可用元素计算平均值)，下面的函数可以解决这个问题。

import numpy as np

def running_mean(x, N):
    out = np.zeros_like(x, dtype=np.float64)
    dim_len = x.shape[0]
    for i in range(dim_len):
        if N%2 == 0:
            a, b = i - (N-1)//2, i + (N-1)//2 + 2
        else:
            a, b = i - (N-1)//2, i + (N-1)//2 + 1

        #cap indices to min and max indices
        a = max(0, a)
        b = min(dim_len, b)
        out[i] = np.mean(x[a:b])
    return out

>>> running_mean(np.array([1,2,3,4]), 2)
array([1.5, 2.5, 3.5, 4. ])

>>> running_mean(np.array([1,2,3,4]), 3)
array([1.5, 2. , 3. , 3.5])
