I have the case where I want to sanity check labeled data. I have hundreds of features and want to find points which have the same features but different label. These found cluster of disagreeing labels should then be numbered and put into a new dataframe.
This isn't hard but I am wondering what the most elegant solution for this is.
Here an example:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({
"feature_1" : [0,0,0,4,4,2],
"feature_2" : [0,5,5,1,1,3],
"label" : ["A","A","B","B","D","A"]
})
result_df = pd.DataFrame({
"cluster_index" : [0,0,1,1],
"feature_1" : [0,0,4,4],
"feature_2" : [5,5,1,1],
"label" : ["A","B","B","D"]
})
In order to get the output you want (both de-duplication and cluster_index), you can use a groupby approach:
g = df.groupby(['feature_1', 'feature_2'])['label']
(df.assign(cluster_index=g.ngroup()) # get group name
.loc[g.transform('size').gt(1)] # filter the non-duplicates
# line below only to have a nice cluster_index range (0,1…)
.assign(cluster_index= lambda d: d['cluster_index'].factorize()[0])
)
output:
feature_1 feature_2 label cluster_index
1 0 5 A 0
2 0 5 B 0
3 4 1 B 1
4 4 1 D 1
First get all duplicated values per feature columns and then if necessary remove duplciated by all columns (here in sample data not necessary), last add GroupBy.ngroup for groups indices:
df = df[df.duplicated(['feature_1','feature_2'],keep=False)].drop_duplicates()
df['cluster_index'] = df.groupby(['feature_1', 'feature_2'])['label'].ngroup()
print (df)
feature_1 feature_2 label cluster_index
1 0 5 A 0
2 0 5 B 0
3 4 1 B 1
4 4 1 D 1
I am using the split-apply-combine pattern in pandas to group my df by a custom aggregation function.
But this returns an undesired DataFrame with the grouped column existing twice: In an MultiIndex and the columns.
The following is a simplified example of my problem.
Say, I have this df
df = pd.DataFrame([[1,2],[3,4],[1,5]], columns=['A','B']))
A B
0 1 2
1 3 4
2 1 5
I want to group by column A and keep only those rows where B has an even value. Thus the desired df is this:
B
A
1 2
3 4
The custom function my_combine_func should do the filtering. But applying it after a groupby, leads to an MultiIndex with the former Index in the second level. And thus column A existing two times.
my_combine_func = group[group['B'] % 2 == 0]
df.groupby(['A']).apply(my_combine_func)
A B
A
1 0 1 2
3 1 3 4
How to apply a custom group function and have the desired df?
It's easier to use apply here so you get a boolean array back:
df[df.groupby('A')['B'].apply(lambda x: x % 2 == 0)]
A B
0 1 2
1 3 4
Pretty new to this and am having trouble finding the right way to do this.
Say I have dataframe1 looking like this with column names and a bunch of numbers as data:
D L W S
1 2 3 4
4 3 2 1
1 2 3 4
and I have dataframe2 looking like this:
Name1 Name2 Name3 Name4
2 data data D
3 data data S
4 data data L
5 data data S
6 data data W
I would like a new dataframe produced with the result of multiplying each row of the second dataframe against each row of the first dataframe, where it multiplies the value of Name1 against the value in the column of dataframe1 which matches the Name4 value of dataframe2.
Is there any nice way to do this? I was trying to look at using methods like where, condition, and apply but haven't been understanding things well enough to get something working.
EDIT: Use the following code to create fake data for the DataFrames:
d1 = {'D':[1,2,3,4,5,6],'W':[2,2,2,2,2,2],'L':[6,5,4,3,2,1],'S':[1,2,3,4,5,6]}
d2 = {'col1': [3,2,7,4,5,6], 'col2':[2,2,2,2,3,4], 'col3':['data', 'data', 'data','data', 'data', 'data' ], 'col4':['D','L','D','W','S','S']}
df1 = pd.DataFrame(data = d1)
df2 = pd.DataFrame(data = d2)
EDIT AGAIN FOR MORE INFO
First I changed the data in df1 at this point so this new example will turn out better.
Okay so from those two dataframes the data frame I'd like to create would come out like this if the multiplication when through for the first four rows of df2. You can see that Col2 and Col3 are unchanged, but depending on the letter of Col4, Col1 was multiplied with the corresponding factor from df1:
d3 = { 'col1':[3,6,9,12,15,18,12,10,8,6,4,2,7,14,21,28,35,42,8,8,8,8,8,8], 'col2':[2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2], 'col3':['data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data','data'], 'col4':['D','D','D','D','D','D','L','L','L','L','L','L','D','D','D','D','D','D','W','W','W','W','W','W']}
df3 = pd.DataFrame(data = d3)
I think I understand what you are trying to achieve. You want to multiply each row r in df2 with the corresponding column c in df1 but the elements from c are only multiplied with the first element in r the rest of the row doesn't change.
I was thinking there might be a way to join df1.transpose() and df2 but I didn't find one.
While not pretty, I think the code below solves your problem:
def stretch(row):
repeated_rows = pd.concat([row]*len(df1), axis=1, ignore_index=True).transpose()
factor = row['col1']
label = row['col4']
first_column = df1[label] * factor
repeated_rows['col1'] = first_column
return repeated_rows
pd.concat((stretch(r) for _, r in df2.iterrows()), ignore_index=True)
#resulting in
col1 col2 col3 col4
0 3 2 data D
1 6 2 data D
2 9 2 data D
3 12 2 data D
4 15 2 data D
5 18 2 data D
0 12 2 data L
1 10 2 data L
2 8 2 data L
3 6 2 data L
4 4 2 data L
5 2 2 data L
0 7 2 data D
1 14 2 data D
2 21 2 data D
3 28 2 data D
4 35 2 data D
5 42 2 data D
0 8 2 data W
1 8 2 data W
2 8 2 data W
3 8 2 data W
4 8 2 data W
5 8 2 data W

Given a pandas crosstab, how do you convert that into a stacked dataframe?
Assume you have a stacked dataframe. First we convert it into a crosstab. Now I would like to revert back to the original stacked dataframe. I searched a problem statement that addresses this requirement, but could not find any that hits bang on. In case I have missed any, please leave a note to it in the comment section.
I would like to document the best practice here. So, thank you for your support.
I know that pandas.DataFrame.stack() would be the best approach. But one needs to be careful of the the "level" stacking is applied to.
Input: Crosstab:
Label a b c d r
ID
1 0 1 0 0 0
2 1 1 0 1 1
3 1 0 0 0 1
4 1 0 0 1 0
6 1 0 0 0 0
7 0 0 1 0 0
8 1 0 1 0 0
9 0 1 0 0 0
Output: Stacked DataFrame:
ID Label
0 1 b
1 2 a
2 2 b
3 2 d
4 2 r
5 3 a
6 3 r
7 4 a
8 4 d
9 6 a
10 7 c
11 8 a
12 8 c
13 9 b
Step-by-step Explanation:
First, let's make a function that would create our data. Note that it randomly generates the stacked dataframe, and so, the final output may differ from what I have given below.
Helper Function: Make the Stacked And Crosstab DataFrames
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
# Make stacked dataframe
def _create_df():
"""
This dataframe will be used to create a crosstab
"""
B = np.array(list('abracadabra'))
A = np.arange(len(B))
AB = list()
for i in range(20):
a = np.random.randint(1,10)
b = np.random.randint(1,10)
AB += [(a,b)]
AB = np.unique(np.array(AB), axis=0)
AB = np.unique(np.array(list(zip(A[AB[:,0]], B[AB[:,1]]))), axis=0)
AB_df = pd.DataFrame({'ID': AB[:,0], 'Label': AB[:,1]})
return AB_df
original_stacked_df = _create_df()
# Make crosstab
crosstab_df = pd.crosstab(original_stacked_df['ID'],
original_stacked_df['Label']).reindex()
What to expect?
You would expect a function to regenerate the stacked dataframe from the crosstab. I would provide my own solution to this in the answer section. If you could suggest something better that would be great.

Closest stackoverflow discussion: pandas stacking a dataframe
Misleading stackoverflow question-topic: change pandas crossstab dataframe into plain table format:
You can just do stack
df[df.astype(bool)].stack().reset_index().drop(0,1)
The following produces the desired outcome.
def crosstab2stacked(crosstab):
stacked = crosstab.stack(dropna=True).reset_index()
stacked = stacked[stacked.replace(0,np.nan)[0].notnull()].drop(columns=[0])
return stacked
# Make original dataframe
original_stacked_df = _create_df()
# Make crosstab dataframe
crosstab_df = pd.crosstab(original_stacked_df['ID'],
original_stacked_df['Label']).reindex()
# Recontruct stacked dataframe
recon_stacked_df = crosstab2stacked(crosstab = crosstab_df)
Check if original == reconstructed:
np.alltrue(original_stacked_df == recon_stacked_df)
Output: True
I have a super strange problem which I spent the last hour trying to solve, but with no success. It is even more strange since I can't replicate it on a small scale.
I have a large DataFrame (150,000 entries). I took out a subset of it and did some manipulation. the subset was saved as a different variable, x.
x is smaller than the df, but its index is in the same range as the df. I'm now trying to assign x back to the DataFrame replacing values in the same column:
rep_Callers['true_vpID'] = x.true_vpID
This inserts all the different values in x to the right place in df, but instead of keeping the df.true_vpID values that are not in x, it is filling them with NaNs. So I tried a different approach:
df.ix[x.index,'true_vpID'] = x.true_vpID
But instead of filling x values in the right place in df, the df.true_vpID gets filled with the first value of x and only it! I changed the first value of x several times to make sure this is indeed what is happening, and it is. I tried to replicate it on a small scale but it didn't work:
df = DataFrame({'a':ones(5),'b':range(5)})
a b
0 1 0
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 1 3
4 1 4
z =Series([random() for i in range(5)],index = range(5))
0 0.812561
1 0.862109
2 0.031268
3 0.575634
4 0.760752
df.ix[z.index[[1,3]],'b'] = z[[1,3]]
a b
0 1 0.000000
1 1 0.812561
2 1 2.000000
3 1 0.575634
4 1 4.000000
5 1 5.000000
I really tried it all, need some new suggestions...
Try using df.update(updated_df_or_series)
Also using a simple example, you can modify a DataFrame by doing an index query and modifying the resulting object.
df_1
a b
0 1 0
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 1 3
4 1 4
df_2 = df_1.ix[3:5]
df_2.b = df_2.b + 2
df_2
a b
3 1 5
4 1 6
df_1
a b
0 1 0
1 1 1
2 1 2
3 1 5
4 1 6
