在数千种条件下过滤 Pandas 数据框

Question

I currently have a list of tuples that look like this:

time_constraints = [
    ('001', '01/01/2020 10:00 AM', '01/01/2020 11:00 AM'),
    ('001', '01/03/2020 05:00 AM', '01/03/2020 06:00 AM'),
    ...
    ('999', '01/07/2020 07:00 AM', '01/07/2020 08:00 AM')
]

where:

• each tuple contains an id , lower_bound , and upper_bound
• none of the time frames overlap for a given id
• len(time_constraints) can be on the order of 10^4 to 10^5.

My goal is to quickly and efficiently filter a relatively large (millions of rows) Pandas dataframe ( df ) to include only the rows that match on the id column and fall between the specified lower_bound and upper_bound times (inclusive).

My current plan is to do this:

import pandas as pd

output = []
for i, lower, upper in time_constraints:
    indices = list(df.loc[(df['id'] == i) & (df['timestamp'] >= lower) & (df['timestamp'] <= upper), ].index)
    output.extend(indices)

output_df = df.loc[df.index.isin(output), ].copy()

However, using a for-loop isn't ideal. I was wondering if there was a better solution (ideally vectorized) using Pandas or NumPy arrays that would be faster.

Edited:

Here's some sample rows of df :

id	timestamp
1	01/01/2020 9:56 AM
1	01/01/2020 10:32 AM
1	01/01/2020 10:36 AM
2	01/01/2020 9:42 AM
2	01/01/2020 9:57 AM
2	01/01/2020 10:02 AM

I already answered for a similar case .

To test, I used 100,000 constraints ( tc ) and 5,000,000 of records ( df ). Is it what you expect

>>> df
          id           timestamp
0        565 2020-08-16 05:40:55
1        477 2020-04-05 22:21:40
2        299 2020-02-22 04:54:34
3        108 2020-08-17 23:54:02
4        041 2020-09-10 10:01:31

g2 = tc.groupby('id')

indexes = []
# for id_ in tqdm(tc['id'].unique()):
for id_ in tc['id'].unique():
    df1 = g1.get_group(id_)
    df2 = g2.get_group(id_)

    ii = pd.IntervalIndex.from_tuples(list(zip(df2['lower_bound'], 
                                               df2['upper_bound'])),
                                      closed='both')
    indexes.append(pd.cut(df1['timestamp'], bins=ii).dropna().index)

out = df.loc[chain.from_iterable(indexes)]

Answer 2

You can use boolean indexing, likewise:

output_df = df[pd.Series(list(zip(df['id'], 
               df['lower_bound'],
               df['upper_bound']))).isin(time_constraints)]

The zip function is creating tuples from each column and then comparing it with your list of tuple. The pd.Series is used to create a Boolean series.
