Pandas 处理丢失掉的数据

2020-04-07 10:44 更新
Working with missing data

In this section, we will discuss missing (also referred to as NA) values in pandas.

Note

The choice of using NaN internally to denote missing data was largely for simplicity and performance reasons. It differs from the MaskedArray approach of, for example, scikits.timeseries. We are hopeful that NumPy will soon be able to provide a native NA type solution (similar to R) performant enough to be used in pandas.

See the cookbook for some advanced strategies.

#Values considered “missing”

As data comes in many shapes and forms, pandas aims to be flexible with regard to handling missing data. While NaN is the default missing value marker for reasons of computational speed and convenience, we need to be able to easily detect this value with data of different types: floating point, integer, boolean, and general object. In many cases, however, the Python None will arise and we wish to also consider that “missing” or “not available” or “NA”.

Note

If you want to consider inf and -inf to be “NA” in computations, you can set pandas.options.mode.use_inf_as_na = True.

In [1]: df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(5, 3), index=['a', 'c', 'e', 'f', 'h'],
   ...:                   columns=['one', 'two', 'three'])
   ...: 

In [2]: df['four'] = 'bar'

In [3]: df['five'] = df['one'] > 0

In [4]: df

In [5]: df2 = df.reindex(['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h'])

In [6]: df2
Out[6]: 
        one       two     three four   five

h  0.721555 -0.706771 -1.039575  bar   True

To make detecting missing values easier (and across different array dtypes), pandas provides the isna()and notna()functions, which are also methods on Series and DataFrame objects:

In [7]: df2['one']
Out[7]: 
a    0.469112
b         NaN
c   -1.135632
d         NaN
e    0.119209
f   -2.104569
g         NaN
h    0.721555
Name: one, dtype: float64

In [8]: pd.isna(df2['one'])
Out[8]: 
a    False
b     True
c    False
d     True
e    False
f    False
g     True
h    False
Name: one, dtype: bool

In [9]: df2['four'].notna()
Out[9]: 
a     True
b    False
c     True
d    False
e     True
f     True
g    False
h     True
Name: four, dtype: bool

In [10]: df2.isna()
Out[10]: 
     one    two  three   four   five
a  False  False  False  False  False
b   True   True   True   True   True
c  False  False  False  False  False
d   True   True   True   True   True
e  False  False  False  False  False
f  False  False  False  False  False
g   True   True   True   True   True
h  False  False  False  False  False

Warning

One has to be mindful that in Python (and NumPy), the nan's don’t compare equal, but None's do. Note that pandas/NumPy uses the fact that np.nan != np.nan, and treats None like np.nan.

In [11]: None == None                                                 # noqa: E711
Out[11]: True

In [12]: np.nan == np.nan
Out[12]: False

So as compared to above, a scalar equality comparison versus a None/np.nan doesn’t provide useful information.

In [13]: df2['one'] == np.nan
Out[13]: 
a    False
b    False
c    False
d    False
e    False
f    False
g    False
h    False
Name: one, dtype: bool

#Integer dtypes and missing data

Because NaN is a float, a column of integers with even one missing values is cast to floating-point dtype (see Support for integer NA for more). Pandas provides a nullable integer array, which can be used by explicitly requesting the dtype:

In [14]: pd.Series([1, 2, np.nan, 4], dtype=pd.Int64Dtype())
Out[14]: 
0      1
1      2
2    NaN
3      4
dtype: Int64

Alternatively, the string alias dtype='Int64' (note the capital "I") can be used.

See Nullable integer data type for more.

#Datetimes

For datetime64[ns] types, NaT represents missing values. This is a pseudo-native sentinel value that can be represented by NumPy in a singular dtype (datetime64[ns]). pandas objects provide compatibility between NaT and NaN.

In [15]: df2 = df.copy()

In [16]: df2['timestamp'] = pd.Timestamp('20120101')

In [17]: df2
Out[17]: 
        one       two     three four   five  timestamp

f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804  bar  False 2012-01-01
h  0.721555 -0.706771 -1.039575  bar   True 2012-01-01

In [18]: df2.loc[['a', 'c', 'h'], ['one', 'timestamp']] = np.nan

In [19]: df2
Out[19]: 
        one       two     three four   five  timestamp
a       NaN -0.282863 -1.509059  bar   True        NaT

f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804  bar  False 2012-01-01
h       NaN -0.706771 -1.039575  bar   True        NaT

In [20]: df2.dtypes.value_counts()
Out[20]: 
float64           3
bool              1
datetime64[ns]    1
object            1
dtype: int64

#Inserting missing data

You can insert missing values by simply assigning to containers. The actual missing value used will be chosen based on the dtype.

For example, numeric containers will always use NaN regardless of the missing value type chosen:

In [21]: s = pd.Series([1, 2, 3])

In [22]: s.loc[0] = None

In [23]: s
Out[23]: 
0    NaN
1    2.0
2    3.0
dtype: float64

Likewise, datetime containers will always use NaT.

For object containers, pandas will use the value given:

In [24]: s = pd.Series(["a", "b", "c"])

In [25]: s.loc[0] = None

In [26]: s.loc[1] = np.nan

In [27]: s
Out[27]: 
0    None
1     NaN
2       c
dtype: object

#Calculations with missing data

Missing values propagate naturally through arithmetic operations between pandas objects.

In [28]: a
Out[28]: 
        one       two
a       NaN -0.282863

The descriptive statistics and computational methods discussed in the data structure overview(and listed hereand hereare all written to account for missing data. For example:

  • When summing data, NA (missing) values will be treated as zero.
  • If the data are all NA, the result will be 0.
  • Cumulative methods like cumsum()and cumprod()ignore NA values by default, but preserve them in the resulting arrays. To override this behaviour and include NA values, use skipna=False.

#Sum/prod of empties/nans

Warning

This behavior is now standard as of v0.22.0 and is consistent with the default in numpy; previously sum/prod of all-NA or empty Series/DataFrames would return NaN. See v0.22.0 whatsnewfor more.

The sum of an empty or all-NA Series or column of a DataFrame is 0.

In [36]: pd.Series([np.nan]).sum()
Out[36]: 0.0

In [37]: pd.Series([]).sum()
Out[37]: 0.0

The product of an empty or all-NA Series or column of a DataFrame is 1.

In [38]: pd.Series([np.nan]).prod()
Out[38]: 1.0

In [39]: pd.Series([]).prod()
Out[39]: 1.0

#NA values in GroupBy

NA groups in GroupBy are automatically excluded. This behavior is consistent with R, for example:

In [40]: df
Out[40]: 
        one       two     three
a       NaN -0.282863 -1.509059

e  0.119209 -1.044236 -0.861849
f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804
h       NaN -0.706771 -1.039575

In [41]: df.groupby('one').mean()

#Cleaning / filling missing data

pandas objects are equipped with various data manipulation methods for dealing with missing data.

#Filling missing values: fillna

fillna()can “fill in” NA values with non-NA data in a couple of ways, which we illustrate:

Replace NA with a scalar value

In [42]: df2
Out[42]: 
        one       two     three four   five  timestamp
a       NaN -0.282863 -1.509059  bar   True        NaT
c       NaN  1.212112 -0.173215  bar  False        NaT
e  0.119209 -1.044236 -0.861849  bar   True 2012-01-01
f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804  bar  False 2012-01-01
h       NaN -0.706771 -1.039575  bar   True        NaT

In [43]: df2.fillna(0)
Out[43]: 
        one       two     three four   five            timestamp
a  0.000000 -0.282863 -1.509059  bar   True                    0
c  0.000000  1.212112 -0.173215  bar  False                    0
e  0.119209 -1.044236 -0.861849  bar   True  2012-01-01 00:00:00
f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804  bar  False  2012-01-01 00:00:00
h  0.000000 -0.706771 -1.039575  bar   True                    0

In [44]: df2['one'].fillna('missing')
Out[44]: 
a     missing
c     missing
e    0.119209
f    -2.10457
h     missing
Name: one, dtype: object

Fill gaps forward or backward

Using the same filling arguments as reindexingwe can propagate non-NA values forward or backward:

In [45]: df
Out[45]: 
        one       two     three
a       NaN -0.282863 -1.509059
c       NaN  1.212112 -0.173215
e  0.119209 -1.044236 -0.861849
f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804
h       NaN -0.706771 -1.039575

In [46]: df.fillna(method='pad')
Out[46]: 
        one       two     three
a       NaN -0.282863 -1.509059
c       NaN  1.212112 -0.173215
e  0.119209 -1.044236 -0.861849
f -2.104569 -0.494929  1.071804
h -2.104569 -0.706771 -1.039575

Limit the amount of filling

If we only want consecutive gaps filled up to a certain number of data points, we can use the limit keyword:

In [47]: df
Out[47]: 
   one       two     three
a  NaN -0.282863 -1.509059
c  NaN  1.212112 -0.173215
e  NaN       NaN       NaN
f  NaN       NaN       NaN
h  NaN -0.706771 -1.039575

In [48]: df.fillna(method='pad', limit=1)
Out[48]: 
   one       two     three
a  NaN -0.282863 -1.509059
c  NaN  1.212112 -0.173215
e  NaN  1.212112 -0.173215
f  NaN       NaN       NaN
h  NaN -0.706771 -1.039575

To remind you, these are the available filling methods:

MethodAction
pad / ffillFill values forward
bfill / backfillFill values backward

With time series data, using pad/ffill is extremely common so that the “last known value” is available at every time point.

ffill()is equivalent to fillna(method='ffill') and bfill()is equivalent to fillna(method='bfill')

#Filling with a PandasObject

You can also fillna using a dict or Series that is alignable. The labels of the dict or index of the Series must match the columns of the frame you wish to fill. The use case of this is to fill a DataFrame with the mean of that column.

In [49]: dff = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(10, 3), columns=list('ABC'))

.#Interpolation

New in version 0.23.0: The limit_area keyword argument was added.

Both Series and DataFrame objects have interpolate()that, by default, performs linear interpolation at missing data points.

For a floating-point index, use method='values':

In [70]: ser
Out[70]: 
0.0      0.0
1.0      NaN
10.0    10.0
dtype: float64

In [71]: ser.interpolate()
Out[71]: 
0.0      0.0

In [72]: ser.interpolate(method='values')
Out[72]: 
0.0      0.0
1.0      1.0
10.0    10.0
dtype: float64

You can also interpolate with a DataFrame:

In [73]: df = pd.DataFrame({'A': [1, 2.1, np.nan, 4.7, 5.6, 6.8],
   ....:                    'B': [.25, np.nan, np.nan, 4, 12.2, 14.4]})
   ....: 

In [74]: df
Out[74]: 
     A      B
0  1.0   0.25
1  2.1    NaN
2  NaN    NaN
3  4.7   4.00
4  5.6  12.20
5  6.8  14.40

In [75]: df.interpolate()
Out[75]: 
     A      B
0  1.0   0.25
1  2.1   1.50
2  3.4   2.75
3  4.7   4.00
4  5.6  12.20
5  6.8  14.40

The method argument gives access to fancier interpolation methods. If you have scipyinstalled, you can pass the name of a 1-d interpolation routine to method. You’ll want to consult the full scipy interpolation documentationand reference guidefor details. The appropriate interpolation method will depend on the type of data you are working with.

  • If you are dealing with a time series that is growing at an increasing rate, method='quadratic' may be appropriate.
  • If you have values approximating a cumulative distribution function, then method='pchip' should work well.
  • To fill missing values with goal of smooth plotting, consider method='akima'.

Warning

These methods require scipy.

When interpolating via a polynomial or spline approximation, you must also specify the degree or order of the approximation:

In [79]: df.interpolate(method='spline', order=2)
Out[79]: 
          A          B

5  6.800000  14.400000

In [80]: df.interpolate(method='polynomial', order=2)
Out[80]: 
          A          B

4  5.600000  12.200000
5  6.800000  14.400000

Compare several methods:

In [81]: np.random.seed(2)

In [82]: ser = pd.Series(np.arange(1, 10.1, .25) ** 2 + np.random.randn(37))

In [83]: missing = np.array([4, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 29])

In [84]: ser[missing] = np.nan

In [85]: methods = ['linear', 'quadratic', 'cubic']

In [86]: df = pd.DataFrame({m: ser.interpolate(method=m) for m in methods})

In [87]: df.plot()
Out[87]: <matplotlib.axes._subplots.AxesSubplot at 0x7f65d8a196a0>

compare_interpolations

Another use case is interpolation at new values. Suppose you have 100 observations from some distribution. And let’s suppose that you’re particularly interested in what’s happening around the middle. You can mix pandas’ reindex and interpolate methods to interpolate at the new values.

In [88]: ser = pd.Series(np.sort(np.random.uniform(size=100)))

# interpolate at new_index
In [89]: new_index = ser.index | pd.Index([49.25, 49.5, 49.75, 50.25, 50.5, 50.75])

In [90]: interp_s = ser.reindex(new_index).interpolate(method='pchip')

In [91]: interp_s[49:51]
Out[91]:

#Interpolation limits

Like other pandas fill methods, interpolate()accepts a limit keyword argument. Use this argument to limit the number of consecutive NaN values filled since the last valid observation:

In [92]: ser = pd.Series([np.nan, np.nan, 5, np.nan, np.nan,
   ....:                  np.nan, 13, np.nan, np.nan])
   ....: 

In [93]: ser
Out[93]: 
0     NaN
1     NaN
2     5.0
3     NaN
4     NaN
5     NaN
6    13.0
7     NaN
8     NaN
dtype: float64

# fill all consecutive values in a forward direction
In [94]: ser.interpolate()
Out[94]: 
0     NaN
1     NaN
2     5.0
3     7.0
4     9.0
5    11.0
6    13.0
7    13.0
8    13.0
dtype: float64

# fill one consecutive value in a forward direction
In [95]: ser.interpolate(limit=1)
Out[95]: 
0     NaN
1     NaN
2     5.0

4     NaN
5     NaN
6    13.0
7    13.0
8     NaN
dtype: float64

By default, NaN values are filled in a forward direction. Use limit_direction parameter to fill backward or from both directions.

# fill one consecutive value backwards
In [96]: ser.interpolate(limit=1, limit_direction='backward')
Out[96]: 
0     NaN
1     5.0
2     5.0
3     NaN
4     NaN
5    11.0
6    13.0
7     NaN
8     NaN

# fill one consecutive value in both directions
In [97]: ser.interpolate(limit=1, limit_direction='both')
Out[97]: 
0     NaN
1     5.0
2     5.0
3     7.0

5    11.0
6    13.0
7    13.0
8    13.0
dtype: float64

By default, NaN values are filled whether they are inside (surrounded by) existing valid values, or outside existing valid values. Introduced in v0.23 the limit_area parameter restricts filling to either inside or outside values.

# fill one consecutive inside value in both directions
In [99]: ser.interpolate(limit_direction='both', limit_area='inside', limit=1)
Out[99]: 
0     NaN
1     NaN

# fill all consecutive outside values backward
In [100]: ser.interpolate(limit_direction='backward', limit_area='outside')
Out[100]:

8    13.0
dtype: float64

#Replacing generic values

Often times we want to replace arbitrary values with other values.

replace()in Series and replace()in DataFrame provides an efficient yet flexible way to perform such replacements.

For a Series, you can replace a single value or a list of values by another value:

In [102]: ser = pd.Series([0., 1., 2., 3., 4.])

In [103]: ser.replace(0, 5)
Out[103]: 
0    5.0
1    1.0
2    2.0
3    3.0
4    4.0
dtype: float64

You can replace a list of values by a list of other values:

In [104]: ser.replace([0, 1, 2, 3, 4], [4, 3, 2, 1, 0])
Out[104]: 
0    4.0
1    3.0
2    2.0
3    1.0
4    0.0
dtype: float64

You can also specify a mapping dict:

In [105]: ser.replace({0: 10, 1: 100})
Out[105]: 
0     10.0
1    100.0
2      2.0
3      3.0
4      4.0
dtype: float64

For a DataFrame, you can specify individual values by column:

In [106]: df = pd.DataFrame({'a': [0, 1, 2, 3, 4], 'b': [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]})

In [107]: df.replace({'a': 0, 'b': 5}, 100)
Out[107]: 
     a    b
0  100  100
1    1    6
2    2    7
3    3    8
4    4    9

Instead of replacing with specified values, you can treat all given values as missing and interpolate over them:

In [108]: ser.replace([1, 2, 3], method='pad')
Out[108]: 
0    0.0
1    0.0
2    0.0
3    0.0
4    4.0
dtype: float64

#String/regular expression replacement

Note

Python strings prefixed with the r character such as r'hello world' are so-called “raw” strings. They have different semantics regarding backslashes than strings withoutthis prefix. Backslashes in raw strings will be interpreted as an escaped backslash, e.g., r'\' == '\\'. You should read about themif this is unclear.

Replace the ‘.’ with NaN (str -> str):

In [109]: d = {'a': list(range(4)), 'b': list('ab..'), 'c': ['a', 'b', np.nan, 'd']}

In [110]: df = pd.DataFrame(d)

In [111]: df.replace('.', np.nan)
Out[111]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

Now do it with a regular expression that removes surrounding whitespace (regex -> regex):

In [112]: df.replace(r'\s*\.\s*', np.nan, regex=True)
Out[112]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

Replace a few different values (list -> list):

In [113]: df.replace(['a', '.'], ['b', np.nan])
Out[113]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    b    b
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

list of regex -> list of regex:

In [114]: df.replace([r'\.', r'(a)'], ['dot', r'\1stuff'], regex=True)
Out[114]: 
   a       b       c
0  0  astuff  astuff
1  1       b       b
2  2     dot     NaN
3  3     dot       d

Only search in column 'b' (dict -> dict):

In [115]: df.replace({'b': '.'}, {'b': np.nan})
Out[115]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

Same as the previous example, but use a regular expression for searching instead (dict of regex -> dict):

In [116]: df.replace({'b': r'\s*\.\s*'}, {'b': np.nan}, regex=True)
Out[116]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

You can pass nested dictionaries of regular expressions that use regex=True:

In [117]: df.replace({'b': {'b': r''}}, regex=True)
Out[117]: 
   a  b    c
0  0  a    a
1  1       b
2  2  .  NaN
3  3  .    d

Alternatively, you can pass the nested dictionary like so:

In [118]: df.replace(regex={'b': {r'\s*\.\s*': np.nan}})
Out[118]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  NaN  NaN
3  3  NaN    d

You can also use the group of a regular expression match when replacing (dict of regex -> dict of regex), this works for lists as well.

In [119]: df.replace({'b': r'\s*(\.)\s*'}, {'b': r'\1ty'}, regex=True)
Out[119]: 
   a    b    c
0  0    a    a
1  1    b    b
2  2  .ty  NaN
3  3  .ty    d

You can pass a list of regular expressions, of which those that match will be replaced with a scalar (list of regex -> regex).

In [120]: df.replace([r'\s*\.\s*', r'a|b'], np.nan, regex=True)
Out[120]: 
   a   b    c
0  0 NaN  NaN
1  1 NaN  NaN
2  2 NaN  NaN
3  3 NaN    d

All of the regular expression examples can also be passed with the to_replace argument as the regex argument. In this case the value argument must be passed explicitly by name or regex must be a nested dictionary. The previous example, in this case, would then be:

In [121]: df.replace(regex=[r'\s*\.\s*', r'a|b'], value=np.nan)
Out[121]: 
   a   b    c
0  0 NaN  NaN
1  1 NaN  NaN
2  2 NaN  NaN
3  3 NaN    d

This can be convenient if you do not want to pass regex=True every time you want to use a regular expression.

Note

Anywhere in the above replace examples that you see a regular expression a compiled regular expression is valid as well.

#Numeric replacement

replace()is similar to fillna()

In [122]: df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(10, 2))

In [123]: df[np.random.rand(df.shape[0]) > 0.5] = 1.5

In [124]: df.replace(1.5, np.nan)
Out[124]: 
          0         1
0 -0.844214 -1.021415
1  0.432396 -0.323580
2  0.423825  0.799180
3  1.262614  0.751965
4       NaN       NaN
5       NaN       NaN
6 -0.498174 -1.060799
7  0.591667 -0.183257
8  1.019855 -1.482465

Replacing more than one value is possible by passing a list.

In [125]: df00 = df.iloc[0, 0]

In [126]: df.replace([1.5, df00], [np.nan, 'a'])
Out[126]: 
          0         1
0         a  -1.02141
1  0.432396  -0.32358
2  0.423825   0.79918
3   1.26261  0.751965
4       NaN       NaN
5       NaN       NaN
6 -0.498174   -1.0608
7  0.591667 -0.183257
8   1.01985  -1.48247
9       NaN       NaN

In [127]: df[1].dtype
Out[127]: dtype('float64')

You can also operate on the DataFrame in place:

In [128]: df.replace(1.5, np.nan, inplace=True)

Warning

When replacing multiple bool or datetime64 objects, the first argument to replace (to_replace) must match the type of the value being replaced. For example,

>>> s = pd.Series([True, False, True])
>>> s.replace({'a string': 'new value', True: False})  # raises
TypeError: Cannot compare types 'ndarray(dtype=bool)' and 'str'

will raise a TypeError because one of the dict keys is not of the correct type for replacement.

However, when replacing a single object such as,

In [129]: s = pd.Series([True, False, True])

In [130]: s.replace('a string', 'another string')
Out[130]: 
0     True
1    False
2     True
dtype: bool

the original NDFrame object will be returned untouched. We’re working on unifying this API, but for backwards compatibility reasons we cannot break the latter behavior. See GH6354for more details.

#Missing data casting rules and indexing

While pandas supports storing arrays of integer and boolean type, these types are not capable of storing missing data. Until we can switch to using a native NA type in NumPy, we’ve established some “casting rules”. When a reindexing operation introduces missing data, the Series will be cast according to the rules introduced in the table below.

data typeCast to
integerfloat
booleanobject
floatno cast
objectno cast

For example:

In [131]: s = pd.Series(np.random.randn(5), index=[0, 2, 4, 6, 7])

In [132]: s > 0
Out[132]: 
0    True
2    True
4    True
6    True
7    True
dtype: bool

In [133]: (s > 0).dtype
Out[133]: dtype('bool')

In [134]: crit = (s > 0).reindex(list(range(8)))

In [135]: crit
Out[135]: 
0    True
1     NaN
2    True
3     NaN
4    True
5     NaN
6    True
7    True
dtype: object

In [136]: crit.dtype
Out[136]: dtype('O')

Ordinarily NumPy will complain if you try to use an object array (even if it contains boolean values) instead of a boolean array to get or set values from an ndarray (e.g. selecting values based on some criteria). If a boolean vector contains NAs, an exception will be generated:

In [137]: reindexed = s.reindex(list(range(8))).fillna(0)

In [138]: reindexed[crit]

However, these can be filled in using fillna()and it will work fine:

In [139]: reindexed[crit.fillna(False)]
Out[139]: 
0    0.126504
2    0.696198

In [140]: reindexed[crit.fillna(True)]
Out[140]: 
0    0.126504
1    0.000000
2    0.696198
3    0.000000

5    0.000000
6    0.601516
7    0.003659

Pandas provides a nullable integer dtype, but you must explicitly request it when creating the series or column. Notice that we use a capital “I” in the dtype="Int64".

In [141]: s = pd.Series([0, 1, np.nan, 3, 4], dtype="Int64")

In [142]: s
Out[142]: 
0      0
1      1
2    NaN
3      3
4      4
dtype: Int64
