In general terms, is there a way to assign specific values to a column via groupby.transform(), where the groupby size is known in advance?
For example:
df = pd.DataFrame(data = {'A':[10,10,20,20],'B':['abc','def','ghi','jkl'],'GroupID':[1,1,2,2]})
funcDict = {'A':'sum','B':['specific_val_1', 'specific_val_2']}
df = df.groupby('GroupID').transform(funcDict)
where the result would be:
index
A
B
1
20
specific_val_1
2
20
specific_val_2
3
40
specific_val_1
4
40
specific_val_2
transform can not accepted dict , so we can do agg with merge
out = df.groupby('GroupID',as_index=False)[['A']].sum()
out = out.merge(pd.DataFrame({'B':['specific_val_1', 'specific_val_2']}),how='cross')
Out[90]:
GroupID A B
0 1 20 specific_val_1
1 1 20 specific_val_2
2 2 40 specific_val_1
3 2 40 specific_val_2
Let's assume the input dataset:
test1 = [[0,7,50], [0,3,51], [0,3,45], [1,5,50],[1,0,50],[2,6,50]]
df_test = pd.DataFrame(test1, columns=['A','B','C'])
that corresponds to:
A B C
0 0 7 50
1 0 3 51
2 0 3 45
3 1 5 50
4 1 0 50
5 2 6 50
I would like to obtain the a dataset grouped by 'A', together with the most common value for 'B' in each group, and the occurrences of that value:
A most_freq freq
0 3 2
1 5 1
2 6 1
I can obtain the first 2 columns with:
grouped = df_test.groupby("A")
out_df = pd.DataFrame(index=grouped.groups.keys())
out_df['most_freq'] = df_test.groupby('A')['B'].apply(lambda x: x.value_counts().idxmax())
but I am having problems the last column.
Also: is there a faster way that doesn't involve 'apply'? This solution doesn't scale well with lager inputs (I also tried dask).
Thanks a lot!
Use SeriesGroupBy.value_counts which sorting by default, so then add DataFrame.drop_duplicates for top values after Series.reset_index:
df = (df_test.groupby('A')['B']
.value_counts()
.rename_axis(['A','most_freq'])
.reset_index(name='freq')
.drop_duplicates('A'))
print (df)
A most_freq freq
0 0 3 2
2 1 0 1
4 2 6 1
Suppose I have pandas DataFrame like this:
df = pd.DataFrame({'id':[1,1,1,2,2,2,2,3,4], 'value':[1,2,3,1,2,3,4,1,1]})
which looks like:
id value
0 1 1
1 1 2
2 1 3
3 2 1
4 2 2
5 2 3
6 2 4
7 3 1
8 4 1
I want to get a new DataFrame with top 2 records for each id, like this:
id value
0 1 1
1 1 2
3 2 1
4 2 2
7 3 1
8 4 1
I can do it with numbering records within group after groupby:
dfN = df.groupby('id').apply(lambda x:x['value'].reset_index()).reset_index()
which looks like:
id level_1 index value
0 1 0 0 1
1 1 1 1 2
2 1 2 2 3
3 2 0 3 1
4 2 1 4 2
5 2 2 5 3
6 2 3 6 4
7 3 0 7 1
8 4 0 8 1
then for the desired output:
dfN[dfN['level_1'] <= 1][['id', 'value']]
Output:
id value
0 1 1
1 1 2
3 2 1
4 2 2
7 3 1
8 4 1
But is there more effective/elegant approach to do this? And also is there more elegant approach to number records within each group (like SQL window function row_number()).
Did you try
df.groupby('id').head(2)
Output generated:
id value
id
1 0 1 1
1 1 2
2 3 2 1
4 2 2
3 7 3 1
4 8 4 1
(Keep in mind that you might need to order/sort before, depending on your data)
EDIT: As mentioned by the questioner, use
df.groupby('id').head(2).reset_index(drop=True)
to remove the MultiIndex and flatten the results:
id value
0 1 1
1 1 2
2 2 1
3 2 2
4 3 1
5 4 1
Since 0.14.1, you can now do nlargest and nsmallest on a groupby object:
In [23]: df.groupby('id')['value'].nlargest(2)
Out[23]:
id
1 2 3
1 2
2 6 4
5 3
3 7 1
4 8 1
dtype: int64
There's a slight weirdness that you get the original index in there as well, but this might be really useful depending on what your original index was.
If you're not interested in it, you can do .reset_index(level=1, drop=True) to get rid of it altogether.
(Note: From 0.17.1 you'll be able to do this on a DataFrameGroupBy too but for now it only works with Series and SeriesGroupBy.)
Sometimes sorting the whole data ahead is very time consuming.
We can groupby first and doing topk for each group:
g = df.groupby(['id']).apply(lambda x: x.nlargest(topk,['value'])).reset_index(drop=True)
df.groupby('id').apply(lambda x : x.sort_values(by = 'value', ascending = False).head(2).reset_index(drop = True))
Here sort values ascending false gives similar to nlargest and True gives similar to nsmallest.
The value inside the head is the same as the value we give inside nlargest to get the number of values to display for each group.
reset_index is optional and not necessary.
This works for duplicated values
If you have duplicated values in top-n values, and want only unique values, you can do like this:
import pandas as pd
ifile = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bhishanpdl/Shared/master/data/twitter_employee.tsv"
df = pd.read_csv(ifile,delimiter='\t')
print(df.query("department == 'Audit'")[['id','first_name','last_name','department','salary']])
id first_name last_name department salary
24 12 Shandler Bing Audit 110000
25 14 Jason Tom Audit 100000
26 16 Celine Anston Audit 100000
27 15 Michale Jackson Audit 70000
If we do not remove duplicates, for the audit department we get top 3 salaries as 110k,100k and 100k.
If we want to have not-duplicated salaries per each department, we can do this:
(df.groupby('department')['salary']
.apply(lambda ser: ser.drop_duplicates().nlargest(3))
.droplevel(level=1)
.sort_index()
.reset_index()
)
This gives
department salary
0 Audit 110000
1 Audit 100000
2 Audit 70000
3 Management 250000
4 Management 200000
5 Management 150000
6 Sales 220000
7 Sales 200000
8 Sales 150000
To get the first N rows of each group, another way is via groupby().nth[:N]. The outcome of this call is the same as groupby().head(N). For example, for the top-2 rows for each id, call:
N = 2
df1 = df.groupby('id', as_index=False).nth[:N]
To get the largest N values of each group, I suggest two approaches.
First sort by "id" and "value" (make sure to sort "id" in ascending order and "value" in descending order by using the ascending parameter appropriately) and then call groupby().nth[].
N = 2
df1 = df.sort_values(by=['id', 'value'], ascending=[True, False])
df1 = df1.groupby('id', as_index=False).nth[:N]
Another approach is to rank the values of each group and filter using these ranks.
# for the entire rows
N = 2
msk = df.groupby('id')['value'].rank(method='first', ascending=False) <= N
df1 = df[msk]
# for specific column rows
df1 = df.loc[msk, 'value']
Both of these are much faster than groupby().apply() and groupby().nlargest() calls as suggested in the other answers on here(1, 2, 3). On a sample with 100k rows and 8000 groups, a %timeit test showed that it was 24-150 times faster than those solutions.
Also, instead of slicing, you can also pass a list/tuple/range to a .nth() call:
df.groupby('id', as_index=False).nth([0,1])
# doesn't even have to be consecutive
# the following returns 1st and 3rd row of each id
df.groupby('id', as_index=False).nth([0,2])
I have a dataframe like this:
userid itemid timestamp
1 1 50
1 2 50
1 3 50
1 4 60
2 1 40
2 2 50
I want to drop all rows whose userid occur more than 2 times and get a new dataframe as follows. Does someone can help me? Thanks.
userid itemid timestamp
2 1 40
2 2 50
You can use pd.Series.value_counts and calculate an array of userid filtered by your condition. Then use this to filter your original dataframe.
c = df['userid'].value_counts()
idx = c[c > 2].index
res = df[~df['userid'].isin(idx)]
print(res)
userid itemid timestamp
4 2 1 40
5 2 2 50
I have a dataframe with values similar to below
A10d B10d C10d A B C Strategy
20 10 5 3 5 1 3
The Strategy selects the max of A10d, B10d, C10d and return the value of A,B,C
In this case A10d is the largest and Strategy returns A, value of 3
I am not sure how to create this Strategy column properly, can anyone advise please? Thank you very much for your help
I think you need iloc for select first columns by positions and then get columns names by max with idxmax and replace 10d by whitespace for match columns. Last create new column by lookup:
print (df)
A10d B10d C10d A B C
0 20 10 5 3 5 1
1 20 100 5 3 5 1
df1 = df.iloc[:,:3]
print (df1)
A10d B10d C10d
0 20 10 5
1 20 100 5
s = df1.idxmax(axis=1).str.replace('10d','')
print (s)
0 A
1 B
dtype: object
df['Strategy'] = df.lookup(df.index, s)
print (df)
A10d B10d C10d A B C Strategy
0 20 10 5 3 5 1 3
1 20 100 5 3 5 1 5
