I have two data frames, and the shapes of the two data frames are not same. I want to plot the two data frame values of the violin plots next to each other instead of overlapping.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
data1 = {
'DT' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 100),
'RF' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 110),
'KNN' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 120)
}
maxsize = max([a.size for a in data1.values()])
data_pad1 = {k:np.pad(v, pad_width=(0,maxsize-v.size,), mode='constant', constant_values=np.nan) for k,v in data1.items()}
df1 = pd.DataFrame(data_pad1) # data frame
data2 = {
'DT' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 50),
'RF' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 60),
'KNN' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 80)
}
maxsize = max([a.size for a in data2.values()])
data_pad2 = {k:np.pad(v, pad_width=(0,maxsize-v.size,), mode='constant', constant_values=np.nan) for k,v in data2.items()}
df2 = pd.DataFrame(data_pad2) # dataframe2
#plotting
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(15, 6))
ax = sns.violinplot(data=df1, color="blue")
ax = sns.violinplot(data=df2, color="red")
plt.show()
But I want to get each blue and red violin plot next to each other instead of overlapping.

Seaborn works easiest with data in "long form". You can create such a dataframe directly from the given dictionaries without the need to fill up with NaNs.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
data1 = {'DT': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 100),
'RF': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 110),
'KNN': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 120)}
data2 = {'DT': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 50),
'RF': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 60),
'KNN': np.random.normal(-1, 1, 80)}
df = pd.DataFrame([[label, val, 'data1'] for label, values in data1.items() for val in values]
[[label, val, 'data2'] for label, values in data2.items() for val in values],
columns=['label', 'value', 'source'])
fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(15, 6))
sns.violinplot(data=df, x='label', y='value', hue='source', palette=['cornflowerblue', 'indianred'], ax=ax)
ax.set(xlabel='', ylabel='') # remove labels set by seaborn
sns.despine()
plt.show()

I suggest relabeling the columns in each dataframe to reflect the dataframe number, e.g.:
data2 = {
'DT2' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 50),
'RF2' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 60),
'KNN2' : np.random.normal(-1, 1, 80)
}
You may then:
concatenate both dataframes:
df = pd.concat([df1, df2], axis=1)
define your own palette:
my_palette = {"DT1": "blue", "DT2": "red","KNN1": "blue", "KNN2": "red", "RF1": "blue", "RF2": "red"}
and then force the plotting order using the
order
parameter:sns.violinplot(data=df, order = ['DT1', 'DT2', 'KNN1', 'KNN2', 'RF1', 'RF2'], palette=my_palette)
This yields the following result:
EDIT:
You may manually set the labels to replace each label pair (e.g. DT1, DT2) with a single label (e.g. DT):
locs, labels = plt.xticks() # Get the current locations and labels.
plt.xticks(np.arange(0.5, 4.5, step=2)) # Set label locations.
plt.xticks([0.5, 2.5, 4.5], ['DT', 'KNN', 'RFF']) # Set text labels.
This yields:
