RProf revealed, that the following operation I perform is rather slow:
stockHistory[.(p), stock:=stockHistory[.(p), stock] - (backorderedDemands[.(p-1),backlog] - backorderedDemands[.(p),backlog])]
I suppose this is because of the subtraction
backorderedDemands[.(p-1),backlog] - backorderedDemands[.(p),backlog]
Is there any way to speed up this operation?
.(p) subsets the data.table for a period p, .(p-1) subsets the previous period (see example data below). Would it maybe be faster to apply some kind diff() here? I do not know how to do this, though.
Example data:
backorderedDemands<-CJ(period=1:1000, articleID=letters[1:10], backlog=0)[,backlog:=round(runif(10000)*42,0)]
setkey(backorderedDemands,period, articleID)
stockHistory<-CJ(period=1:1000, articleID=letters[1:10], stock=0)[,stock:=round(runif(10000)*42+66,0)]
setkey(stockHistory,period, articleID)
You can first calculate a difference column in backorderedDemands
.
backorderedDemands[, diff := c(NA, -diff(backlog)), by=articleID]
Also it is not necessary to use stockHistory[.(p), stock]
. It's enough to just use stock
.
stockHistoryNew[.(p), stock:=stock - backorderedDemands[.(p), diff]]
If you want to compute first differences of your data, you can do it like below. It is fast...I included step by step computation.
library(data.table)
library(dplyr)
set.seed(1)
backorderedDemands <-
CJ(period = 1:1000,
articleID = letters[1:10],
backlog = 0)[,backlog:= round(runif(10000) * 42, 0)]
stockHistory <-
CJ(period = 1:1000,
articleID = letters[1:10],
stock = 0)[, stock:= round(runif(10000) * 42 + 66, 0)]
merge(stockHistory, backorderedDemands,
by = c("period", "articleID")) %>%
group_by(articleID) %>%
mutate(lag_backlog = lag(backlog, 1),
my_backlog_diff = backlog - lag_backlog,
my_diff = stock + my_backlog_diff) %>%
as.data.frame(.) %>%
head(., 20)
