pyphi.visualize.dynamics.plot_dynamics(data, node_labels=None, title='', fig=None, ax=None, figsize=(25, 5))[source]#

Plot an array of states over time.

States are shown as an image with time on the horizontal axis and substrate units on the vertical axis; cell brightness encodes each unit’s state.

Parameters:

  • data (ArrayLike) – An array of states with shape (timesteps, units).

  • node_labels (optional) – Labels for the substrate units, used as y-axis tick labels.

  • title (str, optional) – Axes title.

  • fig (matplotlib.figure.Figure, optional) – Existing figure to draw into.

  • ax (matplotlib.axes.Axes, optional) – Existing axes to draw into.

  • figsize (tuple of float, optional) – Figure size, used only when a new figure is created.

Returns:

tuple – The matplotlib figure and axes.
