【问题标题】:Vectorized method to sync two arrays同步两个数组的矢量化方法
【发布时间】:2013-01-07 23:57:51
【问题描述】:
我有两个 Pandas 时间序列:x 和 y,我想同步“截至”。我想为x 中的每个元素找到y 中在它之前的最新(按索引)元素(按索引值)。例如,我想计算这个new_x:
x new_x
---- -----
13:01 13:00
14:02 14:00
y
----
13:00
13:01
13:30
14:00
我正在寻找矢量化解决方案,而不是 Python 循环。时间值基于 Numpy datetime64。 y 数组的长度大约为数百万,因此 O(n^2) 的解决方案可能不实用。

【解决方案1】:
在某些圈子中,此操作称为“asof”连接。 Here is an implementation:
def diffCols(df1, df2):
""" Find columns in df1 not present in df2
Return df1.columns - df2.columns maintaining the order which the resulting
columns appears in df1.
Parameters:
----------
df1 : pandas dataframe object
df2 : pandas dataframe objct
Pandas already offers df1.columns - df2.columns, but unfortunately
the original order of the resulting columns is not maintained.
"""
return [i for i in df1.columns if i not in df2.columns]
def aj(df1, df2, overwriteColumns=True, inplace=False):
""" KDB+ like asof join.
Finds prevailing values of df2 asof df1's index. The resulting dataframe
will have same number of rows as df1.
Parameters
----------
df1 : Pandas dataframe
df2 : Pandas dataframe
overwriteColumns : boolean, default True
The columns of df2 will overwrite the columns of df1 if they have the same
name unless overwriteColumns is set to False. In that case, this function
will only join columns of df2 which are not present in df1.
inplace : boolean, default False.
If True, adds columns of df2 to df1. Otherwise, create a new dataframe with
columns of both df1 and df2.
*Assumes both df1 and df2 have datetime64 index. """
joiner = lambda x : x.asof(df1.index)
if not overwriteColumns:
# Get columns of df2 not present in df1
cols = diffCols(df2, df1)
if len(cols) > 0:
df2 = df2.ix[:,cols]
result = df2.apply(joiner)
if inplace:
for i in result.columns:
df1[i] = result[i]
return df1
else:
return result
在内部,这使用pandas.Series.asof()。

如何使用Series.searchsorted() 返回y 的索引,您将在其中插入x。然后,您可以从该值中减去一个并将其用于索引 y。
In [1]: x
Out[1]:
0 1301
1 1402
In [2]: y
Out[2]:
0 1300
1 1301
2 1330
3 1400
In [3]: y[y.searchsorted(x)-1]
Out[3]:
0 1300
3 1400
注意:以上示例使用 int64 系列
