I have the following data
attr1_A attr1_B attr1_C attr1_D attr2_A attr2_B attr2_C
1 0 0 1 1 0 0
0 1 1 0 0 0 1
0 0 0 0 0 1 0
1 1 1 0 1 1 0
I want to retain attr1_A
, attr1_B
and combine attr1_C
and attr1_D
into attr1_others
. As long as attr1_C
and/or attr1_D
is 1, then attr1_others
will be 1. Similarly, I want to keep attr2_A
but combine the remaining attr2_*
into attr2_others
. Like this:
attr1_A attr1_B attr1_others attr2_A attr2_others
1 0 1 1 0
0 1 1 0 1
0 0 0 0 1
1 1 1 1 1
In other words, for any group of attr
, I want to retain a few known columns but combine the remaining (which I don't know how many remaining attr
of the same group.
I am thinking of doing each group separately: processing all attr1_*
, and then attr2_*
because there are a limited number of groups in my dataset, but many attr under each group.
What I can think right now is to retrieve the others
columns like:
# for group 1
df[x for x in df.columns if "A" not in x and "B" not in x and "attr1_" in x]
# for group 2
df[x for x in df.columns if "A" not in x and "attr2_" in x]
And to combine, I am thinking of using any
function, but I can't come up with the syntax. Could you help?
Updated attempt :
I tried this
# for group 1
df['attr1_others'] = df[df[[x for x in list(df.columns)
if "attr1_" in x
and "A" not in x
and "B" not in x]].any(axis = 'column')]
but got the below error:
ValueError: No axis named column for object type
<
class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Dataframes have the great ability to manipulate data in place, without having to write complex python logic.
To create your attr1_others
and attr2_others
columns, you can combine the columns with or
conditions using this:
df['attr1_others'] = df['attr1_C'] | df['attr1_D']
df['attr2_others'] = df['attr2_B'] | df['attr2_C']
If instead, you wanted an and
condition, you could use:
df['attr1_others'] = df['attr1_C'] & df['attr1_D']
df['attr2_others'] = df['attr2_B'] & df['attr2_C']
You can then delete the lingering original values using del
:
del df['attr1_C']
del df['attr1_D']
del df['attr2_B']
del df['attr2_C']
Create a list of kept-columns. Drop those kept-columns out and assign left-over columns to new dataframe df1
. Groupby df1
by the splitted column names; call any
on axis=1; add_suffix
'_others' and assign result to df2
. Finally, join and sort_index
keep_cols = ['attr1_A', 'attr1_B', 'attr2_A']
df1 = df.drop(keep_cols,1)
df2 = (df1.groupby(df1.columns.str.split('_').str[0], axis=1)
.any(1).add_suffix('_others').astype(int))
Out[512]:
attr1_others attr2_others
0 1 0
1 1 1
2 0 1
3 1 1
df_final = df[keep_cols].join(df2).sort_index(1)
Out[514]:
attr1_A attr1_B attr1_others attr2_A attr2_others
0 1 0 1 1 0
1 0 1 1 0 1
2 0 0 0 0 1
3 1 1 1 1 1
You can use custom list to select columns, and then .any()
with axis=1
parameter. To convert to interger, use .astype(int)
.
For example:
import pandas as pd
df = pd.DataFrame({
'attr1_A': [1, 0, 0, 1],
'attr1_B': [0, 1, 0, 1],
'attr1_C': [0, 1, 0, 1],
'attr1_D': [1, 0, 0, 0],
'attr2_A': [1, 0, 0, 1],
'attr2_B': [0, 0, 1, 1],
'attr2_C': [0, 1, 0, 0]})
cols = [col for col in df.columns.values if col.startswith('attr1') and col.split('_')[1] not in ('A', 'B')]
df['attr1_others'] = df[cols].any(axis=1).astype(int)
df.drop(cols, axis=1, inplace=True)
cols = [col for col in df.columns.values if col.startswith('attr2') and col.split('_')[1] not in ('A', )]
df['attr2_others'] = df[cols].any(axis=1).astype(int)
df.drop(cols, axis=1, inplace=True)
print(df)
Prints:
attr1_A attr1_B attr2_A attr1_others attr2_others
0 1 0 1 1 0
1 0 1 0 1 1
2 0 0 0 0 1
3 1 1 1 1 1
