Introduction

tech.ml.dataset is a great and fast library which brings columnar dataset to the Clojure. Chris Nuernberger has been working on this library for last year as a part of bigger tech.ml stack.

I’ve started to test the library and help to fix uncovered bugs. My main goal was to compare functionalities with the other standards from other platforms. I focused on R solutions: dplyr, tidyr and data.table.

During conversions of the examples I’ve come up how to reorganized existing tech.ml.dataset functions into simple to use API. The main goals were:

  • Focus on dataset manipulation functionality, leaving other parts of tech.ml like pipelines, datatypes, readers, ML, etc.
  • Single entry point for common operations - one function dispatching on given arguments.
  • group-by results with special kind of dataset - a dataset containing subsets created after grouping as a column.
  • Most operations recognize regular dataset and grouped dataset and process data accordingly.
  • One function form to enable thread-first on dataset.

If you want to know more about tech.ml.dataset and dtype-next please refer their documentation:

Let’s require main namespace and define dataset used in most examples:

(require '[tablecloth.api :as tc]
         '[tech.v3.datatype.functional :as dfn])
(def DS (tc/dataset {:V1 (take 9 (cycle [1 2]))
                      :V2 (range 1 10)
                      :V3 (take 9 (cycle [0.5 1.0 1.5]))
                      :V4 (take 9 (cycle ["A" "B" "C"]))}))

Functionality

Dataset

Dataset is a special type which can be considered as a map of columns implemented around tech.ml.dataset library. Each column can be considered as named sequence of typed data. Supported types include integers, floats, string, boolean, date/time, objects etc.

Dataset creation

Dataset can be created from various of types of Clojure structures and files:

  • single values
  • sequence of maps
  • map of sequences or values
  • sequence of columns (taken from other dataset or created manually)
  • sequence of pairs: [string column-data] or [keyword column-data]
  • array of any arrays
  • file types: raw/gzipped csv/tsv, json, xls(x) taken from local file system or URL
  • input stream

tc/dataset accepts:

  • data
  • options (see documentation of tech.ml.dataset/->dataset function for full list):
    • :dataset-name - name of the dataset
    • :num-rows - number of rows to read from file
    • :header-row? - indication if first row in file is a header
    • :key-fn - function applied to column names (eg. keyword, to convert column names to keywords)
    • :separator - column separator
    • :single-value-column-name - name of the column when single value is provided
    • :column-names - in case you want to name columns - only works for sequential input (arrays) or empty dataset
    • :layout - for numerical, native array of arrays - treat entries :as-rows or :as-columns (default)

tc/let-dataset accepts bindings symbol-column-data to simulate R’s tibble function. Each binding is converted into a column. You can refer previous columns to in further bindings (as in let).

Saving

Export dataset to a file or output stream can be done by calling tc/write!. Function accepts:

  • dataset
  • file name with one of the extensions: .csv, .tsv, .csv.gz and .tsv.gz or output stream
  • options:
  • :separator - string or separator char.
(tc/write! ds "output.tsv.gz")
(.exists (clojure.java.io/file "output.tsv.gz"))

Columns and rows

Get columns and rows as sequences. column, columns and rows treat grouped dataset as regular one. See Groups to read more about grouped datasets.

Possible result types:

  • :as-seq or :as-seqs - sequence of seqences (default)
  • :as-maps - sequence of maps (rows)
  • :as-map - map of sequences (columns)
  • :as-double-arrays - array of double arrays
  • :as-vecs - sequence of vectors (rows)

For rows setting :nil-missing? option to false will elide keys for nil values.

Group-by

Grouping by is an operation which splits dataset into subdatasets and packs it into new special type of… dataset. I distinguish two types of dataset: regular dataset and grouped dataset. The latter is the result of grouping.

Operations that perform a transformation on a regular dataset, generally apply that same transformation to individual sub-datasets in a grouped dataset. For example,

(tc/select-rows DS [0 1 2])
_unnamed [3 4]:

| :V1 | :V2 | :V3 | :V4 |
|----:|----:|----:|-----|
|   1 |   1 | 0.5 |   A |
|   2 |   2 | 1.0 |   B |
|   1 |   3 | 1.5 |   C |

returns a dataset containing only the first three rows of DS, while

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/select-rows [0 1 2]))
_unnamed [2 3]:

| :name | :group-id |           :data |
|------:|----------:|-----------------|
|     1 |         0 | Group: 1 [3 4]: |
|     2 |         1 | Group: 2 [3 4]: |

returns a grouped dataset, in which each sub-dataset contains only the first three rows of the sub-datasets in the grouped dataset created by (tc/group-by DS :V1).

Almost all functions recognize type of the dataset (grouped or not) and operate accordingly.

However, you can’t apply reshaping or join/concat functions on grouped datasets.

Grouped dataset is annotated by the :grouped? meta tag and consists of the following columns:

  • :name - group name or structure
  • :group-id - integer assigned to the group
  • :data - groups as datasets

Grouping

Grouping is done by calling group-by function with arguments:

  • ds - dataset
  • grouping-selector - what to use for grouping
  • options:
  • :result-type - what to return:
  • :as-dataset (default) - return grouped dataset
  • :as-indexes - return rows ids (row number from original dataset)
  • :as-map - return map with group names as keys and subdataset as values
  • :as-seq - return sequens of subdatasets
  • :select-keys - list of the columns passed to a grouping selector function

All subdatasets (groups) have set name as the group name, additionally group-id is in meta.

Grouping can be done by:

  • single column name
  • seq of column names
  • value returned by function taking row as map (limited to :select-keys)
  • map of keys (arbitrary group names) to sequences of row indexes

In the case of the first three of these methods, each sub-dataset contains all and only rows from the original data set that share the same grouping value:

  • the value of the row in a specified single column
  • a map from column names to corresponding values found in the row
  • the value returned by the function taking row as map

In the case of the map from group names to sequences of indexes, each sub-dataset will contain all and only rows with the indexes listed in the sequence for a given group name (a key).

Note: currently dataset inside dataset is printed recursively so it renders poorly from markdown. So I will use :as-seq result type to show just group names and groups.

Group dataset as map of indexes (row ids)

(tc/group-by DS :V1 {:result-type :as-indexes})
{1 [0 2 4 6 8], 2 [1 3 5 7]}

Grouped datasets are printed as follows by default.

(tc/group-by DS :V1)

_unnamed [2 3]:

:name :group-id :data
1 0 Group: 1 [5 4]:
2 1 Group: 2 [4 4]:

To get groups as sequence or a map can be done from grouped dataset using groups->seq and groups->map functions.

Groups as seq can be obtained by just accessing :data column.

I will use temporary dataset here.

(let [ds (-> {"a" [1 1 2 2]
              "b" ["a" "b" "c" "d"]}
             (tc/dataset)
             (tc/group-by "a"))]
  (seq (ds :data))) ;; seq is not necessary but Markdown treats `:data` as command here

(Group: 1 [2 2]:

a b
1 a
1 b

Group: 2 [2 2]:

a b
2 c
2 d

)

(-> {"a" [1 1 2 2]
     "b" ["a" "b" "c" "d"]}
    (tc/dataset)
    (tc/group-by "a")
    (tc/groups->seq))

(Group: 1 [2 2]:

a b
1 a
1 b

Group: 2 [2 2]:

a b
2 c

)


Groups as map

(-> {"a" [1 1 2 2]
     "b" ["a" "b" "c" "d"]}
    (tc/dataset)
    (tc/group-by "a")
    (tc/groups->map))

{1 Group: 1 [2 2]:

a b
1 a
1 b

, 2 Group: 2 [2 2]:

a b
2 c
2 d

}


Grouping by more than one column. You can see that group names are maps. When ungrouping is done these maps are used to restore column names.

(tc/group-by DS [:V1 :V3] {:result-type :as-seq})

(Group: {:V1 1, :V3 0.5} [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A

Group: {:V1 2, :V3 1.0} [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
2 8 1.0 B

Group: {:V1 1, :V3 1.5} [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 3 1.5 C
1 9 1.5 C

Group: {:V1 2, :V3 0.5} [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 4 0.5 A

Group: {:V1 1, :V3 1.0} [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 5 1.0 B

Group: {:V1 2, :V3 1.5} [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 6 1.5 C

)


Grouping can be done by providing just row indexes. This way you can assign the same row to more than one group.

(tc/group-by DS {"group-a" [1 2 1 2]
                  "group-b" [5 5 5 1]} {:result-type :as-seq})

(Group: group-a [4 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C

Group: group-b [4 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 6 1.5 C
2 6 1.5 C
2 6 1.5 C
2 2 1.0 B

)


You can group by a result of grouping function which gets row as map and should return group name. When map is used as a group name, ungrouping restore original column names.

(tc/group-by DS (fn [row] (* (:V1 row)
                             (:V3 row))) {:result-type :as-seq})

(Group: 0.5 [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A

Group: 2.0 [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
2 8 1.0 B

Group: 1.5 [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 3 1.5 C
1 9 1.5 C

Group: 1.0 [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 4 0.5 A
1 5 1.0 B

Group: 3.0 [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 6 1.5 C

)


You can use any predicate on column to split dataset into two groups.

(tc/group-by DS (comp #(< % 1.0) :V3) {:result-type :as-seq})

(Group: true [3 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A

Group: false [6 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

)


juxt is also helpful

(tc/group-by DS (juxt :V1 :V3) {:result-type :as-seq})

(Group: [1 0.5] [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A

Group: [2 1.0] [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
2 8 1.0 B

Group: [1 1.5] [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 3 1.5 C
1 9 1.5 C

Group: [2 0.5] [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 4 0.5 A

Group: [1 1.0] [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 5 1.0 B

Group: [2 1.5] [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 6 1.5 C

)


tech.ml.dataset provides an option to limit columns which are passed to grouping functions. It’s done for performance purposes.

(tc/group-by DS identity {:result-type :as-seq
                           :select-keys [:V1]})

(Group: {:V1 1} [5 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
1 3 1.5 C
1 5 1.0 B
1 7 0.5 A
1 9 1.5 C

Group: {:V1 2} [4 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
2 4 0.5 A
2 6 1.5 C
2 8 1.0 B

)

Ungrouping

Ungrouping simply concats all the groups into the dataset. Following options are possible

  • :order? - order groups according to the group name ascending order. Default: false
  • :add-group-as-column - should group name become a column? If yes column is created with provided name (or :$group-name if argument is true). Default: nil.
  • :add-group-id-as-column - should group id become a column? If yes column is created with provided name (or :$group-id if argument is true). Default: nil.
  • :dataset-name - to name resulting dataset. Default: nil (_unnamed)

If group name is a map, it will be splitted into separate columns. Be sure that groups (subdatasets) doesn’t contain the same columns already.

If group name is a vector, it will be splitted into separate columns. If you want to name them, set vector of target column names as :add-group-as-column argument.

After ungrouping, order of the rows is kept within the groups but groups are ordered according to the internal storage.

Groups sorted by group name and named.

1 1 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A

Let’s add group name and id as additional columns

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (comp #(< % 4) :V2))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column true
                  :add-group-id-as-column true}))

false 1 2 6 1.5 C
false 1 1 7 0.5 A
false 1 2 8 1.0 B
false 1 1 9 1.5 C

Let’s assign different column names

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (comp #(< % 4) :V2))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column "Is V2 less than 4?"
                  :add-group-id-as-column "group id"}))

_unnamed [9 6]:

Is V2 less than 4? group id :V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
true 0 1 1 0.5 A

true 0 1 3 1.5 C
false 1 2 4 0.5 A
false 1 1 5 1.0 B
false 1 2 6 1.5 C
false 1 1 7 0.5 A
false 1 2 8 1.0 B
false 1 1 9 1.5 C

If we group by map, we can automatically create new columns out of group names.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (fn [row] {"V1 and V3 multiplied" (* (:V1 row)
                                                      (:V3 row))
                            "V4 as lowercase" (clojure.string/lower-case (:V4 row))}))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column true}))

_unnamed [9 6]:

V1 and V3 multiplied V4 as lowercase :V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
0.5 a 1 1 0.5 A
0.5 a 1 7 0.5 A

2.0 b 2 8 1.0 B
1.5 c 1 3 1.5 C
1.5 c 1 9 1.5 C
1.0 a 2 4 0.5 A
1.0 b 1 5 1.0 B
3.0 c 2 6 1.5 C

We can add group names without separation

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (fn [row] {"V1 and V3 multiplied" (* (:V1 row)
                                                      (:V3 row))
                            "V4 as lowercase" (clojure.string/lower-case (:V4 row))}))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column "just map"
                  :separate? false}))

_unnamed [9 5]:

just map :V1 :V2 :V3 :V4

{“V1 and V3 multiplied” 3.0, “V4 as lowercase” “c”} 2 6 1.5 C

The same applies to group names as sequences

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (juxt :V1 :V3))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column "abc"}))

_unnamed [9 6]:

2 0.5 2 4 0.5 A
1 1.0 1 5 1.0 B
2 1.5 2 6 1.5 C

Let’s provide column names

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (juxt :V1 :V3))
    (tc/ungroup {:add-group-as-column ["v1" "v3"]}))

_unnamed [9 6]:

2 0.5 2 4 0.5 A
1 1.0 1 5 1.0 B
2 1.5 2 6 1.5 C

Also we can supress separation

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by (juxt :V1 :V3))
    (tc/ungroup {:separate? false
                  :add-group-as-column true}))

Other functions

To check if dataset is grouped or not just use grouped? function.

(tc/grouped? DS)
nil
(tc/grouped? (tc/group-by DS :V1))
true

If you want to remove grouping annotation (to make all the functions work as with regular dataset) you can use unmark-group or as-regular-dataset (alias) functions.

It can be important when you want to remove some groups (rows) from grouped dataset using drop-rows or something like that.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/as-regular-dataset)
    (tc/grouped?))
nil

You can also operate on grouped dataset as a regular one in case you want to access its columns using without-grouping-> threading macro.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by [:V4 :V1])
    (tc/without-grouping->
     (tc/order-by (comp (juxt :V4 :V1) :name))))

_unnamed [6 3]:

:name :group-id :data
{:V4 “A”, :V1 1} 0 Group: {:V4 “A”, :V1 1} [2 4]:
{:V4 “A”, :V1 2} 3 Group: {:V4 “A”, :V1 2} [1 4]:
{:V4 “B”, :V1 1} 4 Group: {:V4 “B”, :V1 1} [1 4]:
{:V4 “B”, :V1 2} 1 Group: {:V4 “B”, :V1 2} [2 4]:

{:V4 “C”, :V1 2} 5 Group: {:V4 “C”, :V1 2} [1 4]:

This is considered internal.

If you want to implement your own mapping function on grouped dataset you can call process-group-data and pass function operating on datasets. Result should be a dataset to have ungrouping working.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/process-group-data #(str "Shape: " (vector (tc/row-count %) (tc/column-count %))))
    (tc/as-regular-dataset))

_unnamed [2 3]:

:name :group-id :data

2 1 Shape: [4 4]

Columns

Column is a special tech.ml.dataset structure. For our purposes we cat treat columns as typed and named sequence bound to particular dataset.

Type of the data is inferred from a sequence during column creation.

Names

To select dataset columns or column names columns-selector is used. columns-selector can be one of the following:

  • :all keyword - selects all columns
  • column name - for single column
  • sequence of column names - for collection of columns
  • regex - to apply pattern on column names or datatype
  • filter predicate - to filter column names or datatype
  • type namespaced keyword for specific datatype or group of datatypes

Column name can be anything.

column-names function returns names according to columns-selector and optional meta-field. meta-field is one of the following:

  • :name (default) - to operate on column names
  • :datatype - to operated on column types
  • :all - if you want to process all metadata

Datatype groups are:

  • :type/numerical - any numerical type
  • :type/float - floating point number (:float32 and :float64)
  • :type/integer - any integer
  • :type/datetime - any datetime type

If qualified keyword starts with :!type, complement set is used.


To select all column names you can use column-names function.

(tc/column-names DS)
(:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4)

or

(tc/column-names DS :all)
(:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4)

In case you want to select column which has name :all (or is sequence or map), put it into a vector. Below code returns empty sequence since there is no such column in the dataset.

(tc/column-names DS [:all])
()

Obviously selecting single name returns it’s name if available

(tc/column-names DS :V1)
(tc/column-names DS "no such column")
(:V1)
()

Select sequence of column names.

(tc/column-names DS [:V1 "V2" :V3 :V4 :V5])
(:V1 :V3 :V4)

Select names based on regex, columns ends with 1 or 4

(tc/column-names DS #".*[14]")
(:V1 :V4)

Select names based on regex operating on type of the column (to check what are the column types, call (tc/info DS :columns). Here we want to get integer columns only.

(tc/column-names DS #"^:int.*" :datatype)
(:V1 :V2)

or

(tc/column-names DS :type/integer)
(:V1 :V2)

And finally we can use predicate to select names. Let’s select double precision columns.

(tc/column-names DS #{:float64} :datatype)
(:V3)

or

(tc/column-names DS :type/float64)
(:V3)

If you want to select all columns but given, use complement function. Works only on a predicate.

(tc/column-names DS (complement #{:V1}))
(tc/column-names DS (complement #{:float64}) :datatype)
(tc/column-names DS :!type/float64)
(:V2 :V3 :V4)
(:V1 :V2 :V4)
(:V1 :V2 :V4)

You can select column names based on all column metadata at once by using :all metadata selector. Below we want to select column names ending with 1 which have long datatype.

(tc/column-names DS (fn [meta]
                       (and (= :int64 (:datatype meta))
                            (clojure.string/ends-with? (:name meta) "1"))) :all)
(:V1)

Select

select-columns creates dataset with columns selected by columns-selector as described above. Function works on regular and grouped dataset.


Select only float64 columns

(tc/select-columns DS #(= :float64 %) :datatype)

Drop

drop-columns creates dataset with removed columns.


Drop float64 columns

(tc/drop-columns DS #(= :float64 %) :datatype)

_unnamed [9 3]:

:V1 :V2 :V4
1 1 A
2 2 B
1 3 C
2 4 A
1 5 B
2 6 C
1 7 A
2 8 B
1 9 C

or

(tc/drop-columns DS :type/float64)

_unnamed [9 3]:

:V1 :V2 :V4
1 1 A
2 2 B
1 3 C
2 4 A
1 5 B
2 6 C
1 7 A
2 8 B
1 9 C

Drop all columns but :V1 and :V2

(tc/drop-columns DS (complement #{:V1 :V2}))

If we have grouped data set, column selection is applied to every group separately. Selected columns are dropped.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/drop-columns [:V2 :V3])
    (tc/groups->map))

{1 Group: 1 [5 2]:

:V1 :V4

1 C
1 B
1 A
1 C

, 2 Group: 2 [4 2]:

:V1 :V4
2 B
2 A
2 C

}

Rename

If you want to rename colums use rename-columns and pass map where keys are old names, values new ones.

You can also pass mapping function with optional columns-selector

(tc/rename-columns DS {:V1 "v1"
                        :V2 "v2"
                        :V3 [1 2 3]
                        :V4 (Object.)})

_unnamed [9 4]:

v1 v2 [1 2 3]
1 1 0.5 A
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
2 4 0.5 A
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C
1 7 0.5 A
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

Map all names with function

(tc/rename-columns DS (comp str second name))

_unnamed [9 4]:

1 2 3 4
1 1 0.5 A
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
2 4 0.5 A
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C
1 7 0.5 A
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

Map selected names with function

(tc/rename-columns DS [:V1 :V3] (comp str second name))

_unnamed [9 4]:

1 :V2 3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 2 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
2 4 0.5 A
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C
1 7 0.5 A
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

Function works on grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/rename-columns {:V1 "v1"
                         :V2 "v2"
                         :V3 [1 2 3]
                         :V4 (Object.)})
    (tc/groups->map))

{1 Group: 1 [5 4]:

v1 v2 [1 2 3]
1 1 0.5 A
1 3 1.5 C
1 5 1.0 B
1 7 0.5 A
1 9 1.5 C

, 2 Group: 2 [4 4]:

v1 v2 [1 2 3]
2 2 1.0 B
2 4 0.5 A
2 6 1.5 C
2 8 1.0 B

}

Add or update

To add (or replace existing) column call add-column function. Function accepts:

  • ds - a dataset
  • column-name - if it’s existing column name, column will be replaced
  • column - can be column (from other dataset), sequence, single value or function. Too big columns are always trimmed. Too small are cycled or extended with missing values (according to size-strategy argument)
  • size-strategy (optional) - when new column is shorter than dataset row count, following strategies are applied:
    • :cycle - repeat data
    • :na - append missing values
    • :strict - (default) throws an exception when sizes mismatch

Function works on grouped dataset.


Add single value as column

(tc/add-column DS :V5 "X")

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
1 1 0.5 A X
2 2 1.0 B X
1 3 1.5 C X
2 4 0.5 A X
1 5 1.0 B X
2 6 1.5 C X
1 7 0.5 A X
2 8 1.0 B X
1 9 1.5 C X

Replace one column (column is trimmed)

(tc/add-column DS :V1 (repeatedly rand))

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4

0.70445797 7 0.5 A
0.04564501 8 1.0 B
0.69727730 9 1.5 C

Copy column

(tc/add-column DS :V5 (DS :V1))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
1 1 0.5 A 1
2 2 1.0 B 2

1 5 1.0 B 1
2 6 1.5 C 2
1 7 0.5 A 1
2 8 1.0 B 2
1 9 1.5 C 1

When function is used, argument is whole dataset and the result should be column, sequence or single value

(tc/add-column DS :row-count tc/row-count)

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :row-count
1 1 0.5 A 9
2 2 1.0 B 9
1 3 1.5 C 9
2 4 0.5 A 9
1 5 1.0 B 9
2 6 1.5 C 9
1 7 0.5 A 9
2 8 1.0 B 9
1 9 1.5 C 9

Above example run on grouped dataset, applies function on each group separately.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/add-column :row-count tc/row-count)
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :row-count
1 1 0.5 A 5
1 3 1.5 C 5
1 5 1.0 B 5
1 7 0.5 A 5
1 9 1.5 C 5
2 2 1.0 B 4
2 4 0.5 A 4
2 6 1.5 C 4
2 8 1.0 B 4

When column which is added is longer than row count in dataset, column is trimmed. When column is shorter, it’s cycled or missing values are appended.

(tc/add-column DS :V5 [:r :b] :cycle)

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
1 1 0.5 A :r
2 2 1.0 B :b

2 6 1.5 C :b
1 7 0.5 A :r
2 8 1.0 B :b
1 9 1.5 C :r
(tc/add-column DS :V5 [:r :b] :na)

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
1 1 0.5 A :r
2 2 1.0 B :b
1 3 1.5 C
2 4 0.5 A
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C
1 7 0.5 A
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

Exception is thrown when :strict (default) strategy is used and column size is not equal row count

(try
  (tc/add-column DS :V5 [:r :b])
  (catch Exception e (str "Exception caught: "(ex-message e))))
"Exception caught: Column size (2) should be exactly the same as dataset row count (9). Consider `:cycle` or `:na` strategy."

Tha same applies for grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V3)
    (tc/add-column :V5 [:r :b] :na)
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5

1 5 1.0 B :b
2 8 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C :r
2 6 1.5 C :b
1 9 1.5 C

Let’s use other column to fill groups

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V3)
    (tc/add-column :V5 (DS :V2) :cycle)
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
1 1 0.5 A 1
2 4 0.5 A 2
1 7 0.5 A 3
2 2 1.0 B 1
1 5 1.0 B 2
2 8 1.0 B 3
1 3 1.5 C 1
2 6 1.5 C 2
1 9 1.5 C 3

In case you want to add or update several columns you can call add-columns and provide map where keys are column names, vals are columns.

(tc/add-columns DS {:V1 #(map inc (% :V1))
                               :V5 #(map (comp keyword str) (% :V4))
                               :V6 11})

_unnamed [9 6]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5 :V6
2 1 0.5 A :A 11
3 2 1.0 B :B 11
2 3 1.5 C :C 11
3 4 0.5 A :A 11
2 5 1.0 B :B 11
3 6 1.5 C :C 11
2 7 0.5 A :A 11
3 8 1.0 B :B 11
2 9 1.5 C :C 11

Update

If you want to modify specific column(s) you can call update-columns. Arguments:

  • dataset
  • one of:
    • columns-selector and function (or sequence of functions)
    • map where keys are column names and vals are function

Functions accept column and have to return column or sequence


Reverse of columns

(tc/update-columns DS :all reverse) 

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 9 1.5 C
2 8 1.0 B
1 7 0.5 A
2 6 1.5 C
1 5 1.0 B
2 4 0.5 A
1 3 1.5 C
2 2 1.0 B
1 1 0.5 A

Apply dec/inc on numerical columns

(tc/update-columns DS :type/numerical [(partial map dec)
                                        (partial map inc)])

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
0 2 -0.5 A
1 3 0.0 B
0 4 0.5 C
1 5 -0.5 A
0 6 0.0 B
1 7 0.5 C
0 8 -0.5 A
1 9 0.0 B
0 10 0.5 C

You can also assign a function to a column by packing operations into the map.

(tc/update-columns DS {:V1 reverse
                        :V2 (comp shuffle seq)})

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 2 0.5 A
2 1 1.0 B
1 8 1.5 C
2 5 0.5 A
1 6 1.0 B
2 3 1.5 C
1 9 0.5 A
2 7 1.0 B
1 4 1.5 C

Map

The other way of creating or updating column is to map rows as regular map function. The arity of mapping function should be the same as number of selected columns.

Arguments:

  • ds - dataset
  • column-name - target column name
  • columns-selector - columns selected
  • map-fn - mapping function

Let’s add numerical columns together

(tc/map-columns DS
                 :sum-of-numbers
                 (tc/column-names DS  #{:int64 :float64} :datatype)
                 (fn [& rows]
                   (reduce + rows)))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :sum-of-numbers
1 1 0.5 A 2.5
2 2 1.0 B 5.0
1 3 1.5 C 5.5
2 4 0.5 A 6.5
1 5 1.0 B 7.0
2 6 1.5 C 9.5
1 7 0.5 A 8.5
2 8 1.0 B 11.0
1 9 1.5 C 11.5

The same works on grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V4)
    (tc/map-columns :sum-of-numbers
                     (tc/column-names DS  #{:int64 :float64} :datatype)
                     (fn [& rows]
                       (reduce + rows)))
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :sum-of-numbers
1 1 0.5 A 2.5
2 4 0.5 A 6.5
1 7 0.5 A 8.5
2 2 1.0 B 5.0
1 5 1.0 B 7.0
2 8 1.0 B 11.0
1 3 1.5 C 5.5
2 6 1.5 C 9.5
1 9 1.5 C 11.5

Reorder

To reorder columns use columns selectors to choose what columns go first. The unseleted columns are appended to the end.

(tc/reorder-columns DS :V4 [:V3 :V2])

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V4 :V3 :V2 :V1
A 0.5 1 1
B 1.0 2 2
C 1.5 3 1
A 0.5 4 2
B 1.0 5 1
C 1.5 6 2
A 0.5 7 1
B 1.0 8 2
C 1.5 9 1

This function doesn’t let you select meta field, so you have to call column-names in such case. Below we want to add integer columns at the end.

(tc/reorder-columns DS (tc/column-names DS (complement #{:int64}) :datatype))

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V3 :V4 :V1 :V2
0.5 A 1 1
1.0 B 2 2
1.5 C 1 3
0.5 A 2 4
1.0 B 1 5
1.5 C 2 6
0.5 A 1 7
1.0 B 2 8
1.5 C 1 9

Type conversion

To convert column into given datatype can be done using convert-types function. Not all the types can be converted automatically also some types require slow parsing (every conversion from string). In case where conversion is not possible you can pass conversion function.

Arguments:

  • ds - dataset
  • Two options:
    • coltype-map in case when you want to convert several columns, keys are column names, vals are new types
    • column-selector and new-types - column name and new datatype (or datatypes as sequence)

new-types can be:

  • a type like :int64 or :string or sequence of types
  • or sequence of pair of datetype and conversion function

After conversion additional infomation is given on problematic values.

The other conversion is casting column into java array (->array) of the type column or provided as argument. Grouped dataset returns sequence of arrays.


Basic conversion

(-> DS
    (tc/convert-types :V1 :float64)
    (tc/info :columns))

_unnamed :column info [4 6]:

:name :datatype :n-elems :unparsed-indexes :unparsed-data :categorical?
:V1 :float64 9 {} []
:V2 :int64 9
:V3 :float64 9
:V4 :string 9 true

Using custom converter. Let’s treat :V4 as haxadecimal values. See that this way we can map column to any value.

(-> DS
    (tc/convert-types :V4 [[:int16 #(Integer/parseInt % 16)]]))

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 10
2 2 1.0 11
1 3 1.5 12
2 4 0.5 10
1 5 1.0 11
2 6 1.5 12
1 7 0.5 10
2 8 1.0 11
1 9 1.5 12

You can process several columns at once

(-> DS
    (tc/convert-types {:V1 :float64
                        :V2 :object
                        :V3 [:boolean #(< % 1.0)]
                        :V4 :object})
    (tc/info :columns))

_unnamed :column info [4 6]:

:name :datatype :n-elems :unparsed-indexes :unparsed-data :categorical?
:V1 :float64 9 {} []
:V2 :object 9 {} [] true
:V3 :boolean 9 {} []
:V4 :object 9 true

Convert one type into another

(-> DS
    (tc/convert-types :type/numerical :int16)
    (tc/info :columns))

_unnamed :column info [4 6]:

:name :datatype :n-elems :unparsed-indexes :unparsed-data :categorical?
:V1 :int16 9 {} []
:V2 :int16 9 {} []
:V3 :int16 9 {} []
:V4 :string 9 true

Function works on the grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/convert-types :V1 :float32)
    (tc/ungroup)
    (tc/info :columns))

_unnamed :column info [4 6]:

:name :datatype :n-elems :unparsed-indexes :unparsed-data :categorical?
:V1 :float32 9 {} []
:V2 :int64 9
:V3 :float64 9
:V4 :string 9 true

Double array conversion.

(tc/->array DS :V1)
#object["[J" 0x23a24c11 "[J@23a24c11"]

Function also works on grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V3)
    (tc/->array :V2))
(#object["[J" 0x2d616536 "[J@2d616536"] #object["[J" 0xd264282 "[J@d264282"] #object["[J" 0x3dbb9667 "[J@3dbb9667"])

You can also cast the type to the other one (if casting is possible):

(tc/->array DS :V4 :string)
(tc/->array DS :V1 :float32)
#object["[Ljava.lang.String;" 0x777dde98 "[Ljava.lang.String;@777dde98"]
#object["[F" 0x2210bbc6 "[F@2210bbc6"]

Rows

Rows can be selected or dropped using various selectors:

  • row id(s) - row index as number or seqence of numbers (first row has index 0, second 1 and so on)
  • sequence of true/false values
  • filter by predicate (argument is row as a map)

When predicate is used you may want to limit columns passed to the function (select-keys option).

Additionally you may want to precalculate some values which will be visible for predicate as additional columns. It’s done internally by calling add-columns on a dataset. :pre is used as a column definitions.

Select

Select fifth row

(tc/select-rows DS 4)

_unnamed [1 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 5 1.0 B

Select 3 rows

(tc/select-rows DS [1 4 5])

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
2 2 1.0 B
1 5 1.0 B
2 6 1.5 C

Select rows using sequence of true/false values

(tc/select-rows DS [true nil nil true])

_unnamed [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A

Select rows using predicate

(tc/select-rows DS (comp #(< % 1) :V3))

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A

The same works on grouped dataset, let’s select first row from every group.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/select-rows 0)
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [2 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 2 1.0 B

If you want to select :V2 values which are lower than or equal mean in grouped dataset you have to precalculate it using :pre.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V4)
    (tc/select-rows (fn [row] (<= (:V2 row) (:mean row)))
                     {:pre {:mean #(tech.v3.datatype.functional/mean (% :V2))}})
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [6 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 1 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A
2 2 1.0 B
1 5 1.0 B
1 3 1.5 C
2 6 1.5 C

Drop

drop-rows removes rows, and accepts exactly the same parameters as select-rows


Drop values lower than or equal :V2 column mean in grouped dataset.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V4)
    (tc/drop-rows (fn [row] (<= (:V2 row) (:mean row)))
                   {:pre {:mean #(tech.v3.datatype.functional/mean (% :V2))}})
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4
1 7 0.5 A
2 8 1.0 B
1 9 1.5 C

Map rows

Call a mapping function for every row. Mapping function should return a map, where keys are column names (new or old) and values are column values.

Works on grouped dataset too.

(tc/map-rows DS (fn [{:keys [V1 V2]}] {:V1 0
                                       :V5 (/ (+ V1 V2) (double V2))}))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V2 :V3 :V4 :V5
0 1 0.5 A 2.00000000
0 2 1.0 B 2.00000000
0 3 1.5 C 1.33333333
0 4 0.5 A 1.50000000
0 5 1.0 B 1.20000000
0 6 1.5 C 1.33333333
0 7 0.5 A 1.14285714
0 8 1.0 B 1.25000000
0 9 1.5 C 1.11111111

Other

There are several function to select first, last, random rows, or display head, tail of the dataset. All functions work on grouped dataset.

All random functions accept :seed as an option if you want to fix returned result.


First row

(tc/first DS)

by-rank calculates rank on column(s). It’s base on R rank() with addition of :dense (default) tie strategy which give consecutive rank numbering.

:desc? options (default: true) sorts input with descending order, giving top values under 0 value.

rank is zero based and is defined at tablecloth.api.utils namespace.

Aggregate

Aggregating is a function which produces single row out of dataset.

Aggregator is a function or sequence or map of functions which accept dataset as an argument and result single value, sequence of values or map.

Where map is given as an input or result, keys are treated as column names.

Grouped dataset is ungrouped after aggregation. This can be turned off by setting :ungroup? to false. In case you want to pass additional ungrouping parameters add them to the options.

By default resulting column names are prefixed with summary prefix (set it with :default-column-name-prefix option).


Let’s calculate mean of some columns

(tc/aggregate DS #(reduce + (% :V2)))

_unnamed [1 1]:

summary
45

Let’s give resulting column a name.

(tc/aggregate DS {:sum-of-V2 #(reduce + (% :V2))})

_unnamed [1 1]:

:sum-of-V2
45

Sequential result is spread into separate columns

(tc/aggregate DS #(take 5(% :V2)))

_unnamed [1 5]:

:summary-0 :summary-1 :summary-2 :summary-3 :summary-4
1 2 3 4 5

You can combine all variants and rename default prefix

(tc/aggregate DS [#(take 3 (% :V2))
                   (fn [ds] {:sum-v1 (reduce + (ds :V1))
                            :prod-v3 (reduce * (ds :V3))})] {:default-column-name-prefix "V2-value"})

_unnamed [1 5]:

Processing grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by [:V4])
    (tc/aggregate [#(take 3 (% :V2))
                    (fn [ds] {:sum-v1 (reduce + (ds :V1))
                             :prod-v3 (reduce * (ds :V3))})] {:default-column-name-prefix "V2-value"}))

_unnamed [3 6]:

:V4 :V2-value-0-0 :V2-value-0-1 :V2-value-0-2 :V2-value-1-sum-v1 :V2-value-1-prod-v3
A 1 4 7 4 0.125
B 2 5 8 5 1.000
C 3 6 9 4 3.375

Result of aggregating is automatically ungrouped, you can skip this step by stetting :ungroup? option to false.

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by [:V3])
    (tc/aggregate [#(take 3 (% :V2))
                    (fn [ds] {:sum-v1 (reduce + (ds :V1))

Crosstab

Cross tabulation built from two sets of columns. First rows and cols are used to construct grouped dataset, then aggregation function is applied for each pair. By default it counts rows from each group.

Options are:

  • :aggregator - function which aggregates values of grouped dataset, default it’s row-count
  • :marginal-rows and :marginal-cols - if true, sum of rows and cols are added as an additional columns and row. May be custom function which accepts pure row and col as a seq.
  • :replace-missing? - should missing values be replaced (default: true) with :missing-value (default: 0)
  • :pivot? - if false, flat aggregation result is returned (default: false)

Order

Ordering can be done by column(s) or any function operating on row. Possible order can be:

  • :asc for ascending order (default)
  • :desc for descending order
  • custom comparator

:select-keys limits row map provided to ordering functions.


Order by single column, ascending

Custom function can be used to provided ordering key. Here order by :V4 descending, then by product of other columns ascending.

(tc/order-by DS [:V4 (fn [row] (* (:V1 row)
                                  (:V2 row)
                                  (:V3 row)))] [:desc :asc])

1 5 1.0 B
2 8 1.0 B
1 1 0.5 A
1 7 0.5 A
2 4 0.5 A

Custom comparator also can be used in case objects are not comparable by default. Let’s define artificial one: if Euclidean distance is lower than 2, compare along z else along x and y. We use first three columns for that.

(defn dist
  [v1 v2]
  (->> v2
       (map - v1)
       (map #(* % %))
       (reduce +)
       (Math/sqrt)))
#'user/dist
(tc/order-by DS [:V1 :V2 :V3] (fn [[x1 y1 z1 :as v1] [x2 y2 z2 :as v2]]
                                (let [d (dist v1 v2)]
                                  (if (< d 2.0)
                                    (compare z1 z2)
                                    (compare [x1 y1] [x2 y2])))))

Unique

Remove rows which contains the same data. By default unique-by removes duplicates from whole dataset. You can also pass list of columns or functions (similar as in group-by) to remove duplicates limited by them. Default strategy is to keep the first row. More strategies below.

unique-by works on groups

Missing

When dataset contains missing values you can select or drop rows with missing values or replace them using some strategy.

column-selector can be used to limit considered columns

Let’s define dataset which contains missing values

(def DSm (tc/dataset {:V1 (take 9 (cycle [1 2 nil]))
                      :V2 (range 1 10)

Replace

Missing values can be replaced using several strategies. replace-missing accepts:

  • dataset
  • column selector, default: :all
  • strategy, default: :nearest
  • value (optional)
    • single value
    • sequence of values (cycled)
    • function, applied on column(s) with stripped missings
    • map with [index,value] pairs

Strategies are:

  • :value - replace with given value
  • :up - copy values up
  • :down - copy values down
  • :updown - copy values up and then down for missing values at the end
  • :downup - copy values down and then up for missing values at the beginning
  • :mid or :nearest - copy values around known values
  • :midpoint - use average value from previous and next non-missing
  • :lerp - trying to lineary approximate values, works for numbers and datetime, otherwise applies :nearest. For numbers always results in float datatype.

Let’s define special dataset here:

(def DSm2 (tc/dataset {:a [nil nil nil 1.0 2  nil nil nil nil  nil 4   nil  11 nil nil]
                       :b [2   2   2 nil nil nil nil nil nil 13   nil   3  4  5 5]}))

Inject

When your column contains not continuous data range you can fill up with lacking values. Arguments:

  • dataset
  • column name
  • expected step (max-span, milliseconds in case of datetime column)
  • (optional) missing-strategy - how to replace missing, default :down (set to nil if none)
  • (optional) missing-value - optional value for replace missing

(-> (tc/dataset {:a [1 2 9]
                 :b [:a :b :c]})

Join/Separate Columns

Joining or separating columns are operations which can help to tidy messy dataset.

  • join-columns joins content of the columns (as string concatenation or other structure) and stores it in new column
  • separate-column splits content of the columns into set of new columns

Join

join-columns accepts:

  • dataset
  • column selector (as in select-columns)
  • options
  • :separator (default "-")
  • :drop-columns? - whether to drop source columns or not (default true)
  • :result-type
  • :map - packs data into map
  • :seq - packs data into sequence
  • :string - join strings with separator (default)
  • or custom function which gets row as a vector
  • :missing-subst - substitution for missing value

Default usage. Create :joined column out of other columns.

(tc/join-columns DSm :joined [:V1 :V2 :V4])

We can use custom separator.

(tc/join-columns DSm :joined [:V1 :V2 :V4] {:separator "/"
                                            :missing-subst "."})

Separate

Column can be also separated into several other columns using string as separator, regex or custom function. Arguments:

  • dataset
  • source column
  • target columns - can be nil or :infer to automatically create columns
  • separator as:
    • string - it’s converted to regular expression and passed to clojure.string/split function
    • regex
    • or custom function (default: identity)
  • options
    • :drop-column? - whether drop source column(s) or not (default: true). Set to :all to keep only separation result.
    • :missing-subst - values which should be treated as missing, can be set, sequence, value or function (default: "")

Custom function (as separator) should return seqence of values for given value or a sequence of map.

Array column conversion

A dataset can have as well columns of type java array. We can convert from normal columns to a single array column and back like this:

(-> (tc/dataset {:x [(double-array [1 2 3])
                     (double-array [4 5 6])]
                 :y [:a :b]})
    (tc/array-column->columns :x))
_unnamed [2 4]:

| :y |   0 |   1 |   2 |
|----|----:|----:|----:|
| :a | 1.0 | 2.0 | 3.0 |
| :b | 4.0 | 5.0 | 6.0 |

and the other way around:

(-> (tc/dataset {0 [0.0 1 2]
                 1 [3.0 4 5]
                 :x [:a :b :c]})
    (tc/columns->array-column [0 1] :y))
_unnamed [3 2]:

| :x |          :y |

| :c | [D@59e24452 |

Fold/Unroll Rows

To pack or unpack the data into single value you can use fold-by and unroll functions.

fold-by groups dataset and packs columns data from each group separately into desired datastructure (like vector or sequence). unroll does the opposite.

Fold-by

Group-by and pack columns into vector

(tc/fold-by DS [:V3 :V4 :V1])

_unnamed [6 4]:

:V3 :V4 :V1 :V2
0.5 A 1 [1 7]
1.0 B 2 [2 8]
1.5 C 1 [3 9]
0.5 A 2 [4]
1.0 B 1 [5]
1.5 C 2 [6]

You can pack several columns at once.

(tc/fold-by DS [:V4])

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V4 :V1 :V2 :V3
A [1 2 1] [1 4 7] [0.5 0.5 0.5]
B [2 1 2] [2 5 8] [1.0 1.0 1.0]
C [1 2 1] [3 6 9] [1.5 1.5 1.5]

You can use custom packing function

(tc/fold-by DS [:V4] seq)

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V4 :V1 :V2 :V3
A (1 2 1) (1 4 7) (0.5 0.5 0.5)
B (2 1 2) (2 5 8) (1.0 1.0 1.0)
C (1 2 1) (3 6 9) (1.5 1.5 1.5)

or

(tc/fold-by DS [:V4] set)

_unnamed [3 4]:

:V4 :V1 :V2 :V3
A #{1 2} #{7 1 4} #{0.5}
B #{1 2} #{2 5 8} #{1.0}
C #{1 2} #{6 3 9} #{1.5}

This works also on grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/fold-by :V4)
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [6 4]:

:V4 :V1 :V2 :V3
A [1 1] [1 7] [0.5 0.5]
C [1 1] [3 9] [1.5 1.5]
B [1] [5] [1.0]
B [2 2] [2 8] [1.0 1.0]
A [2] [4] [0.5]
C [2] [6] [1.5]

Unroll

unroll unfolds sequences stored in data, multiplying other ones when necessary. You can unroll more than one column at once (folded data should have the same size!).

Options:

  • :indexes? if true (or column name), information about index of unrolled sequence is added.
  • :datatypes list of datatypes which should be applied to restored columns, a map

Unroll one column

(tc/unroll (tc/fold-by DS [:V4]) [:V1])

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V4 :V2 :V3 :V1
A [1 4 7] [0.5 0.5 0.5] 1
A [1 4 7] [0.5 0.5 0.5] 2
A [1 4 7] [0.5 0.5 0.5] 1
B [2 5 8] [1.0 1.0 1.0] 2
B [2 5 8] [1.0 1.0 1.0] 1
B [2 5 8] [1.0 1.0 1.0] 2
C [3 6 9] [1.5 1.5 1.5] 1
C [3 6 9] [1.5 1.5 1.5] 2
C [3 6 9] [1.5 1.5 1.5] 1

Unroll all folded columns

(tc/unroll (tc/fold-by DS [:V4]) [:V1 :V2 :V3])

_unnamed [9 4]:

:V4 :V1 :V2 :V3
A 1 1 0.5
A 2 4 0.5
A 1 7 0.5
B 2 2 1.0
B 1 5 1.0
B 2 8 1.0
C 1 3 1.5
C 2 6 1.5
C 1 9 1.5

Unroll one by one leads to cartesian product

(-> DS
    (tc/fold-by [:V4 :V1])
    (tc/unroll [:V2])
    (tc/unroll [:V3]))

_unnamed [15 4]:

C 1 9 1.5
C 1 9 1.5
A 2 4 0.5
B 1 5 1.0
C 2 6 1.5

You can add indexes

(tc/unroll (tc/fold-by DS [:V1]) [:V4 :V2 :V3] {:indexes? true})

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :indexes :V4 :V2 :V3
1 0 A 1 0.5
1 1 C 3 1.5
1 2 B 5 1.0
1 3 A 7 0.5
1 4 C 9 1.5
2 0 B 2 1.0
2 1 A 4 0.5
2 2 C 6 1.5
2 3 B 8 1.0
(tc/unroll (tc/fold-by DS [:V1]) [:V4 :V2 :V3] {:indexes? "vector idx"})

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 vector idx :V4 :V2 :V3
1 0 A 1 0.5
1 1 C 3 1.5
1 2 B 5 1.0
1 3 A 7 0.5
1 4 C 9 1.5
2 0 B 2 1.0
2 1 A 4 0.5
2 2 C 6 1.5
2 3 B 8 1.0

You can also force datatypes

(-> DS
    (tc/fold-by [:V1])
    (tc/unroll [:V4 :V2 :V3] {:datatypes {:V4 :string
                                           :V2 :int16
                                           :V3 :float32}})
    (tc/info :columns))

_unnamed :column info [4 4]:

:name :datatype :n-elems :categorical?
:V1 :int64 9
:V4 :string 9 true
:V2 :int16 9
:V3 :float32 9

This works also on grouped dataset

(-> DS
    (tc/group-by :V1)
    (tc/fold-by [:V1 :V4])
    (tc/unroll :V3 {:indexes? true})
    (tc/ungroup))

_unnamed [9 5]:

:V1 :V4 :V2 :indexes :V3
1 A [1 7] 0 0.5
1 A [1 7] 1 0.5
1 C [3 9] 0 1.5
1 C [3 9] 1 1.5
1 B [5] 0 1.0
2 B [2 8] 0 1.0

2 A [4] 0 0.5
2 C [6] 0 1.5

Reshape

Reshaping data provides two types of operations:

  • pivot->longer - converting columns to rows
  • pivot->wider - converting rows to columns

Both functions are inspired on tidyr R package and provide almost the same functionality.

All examples are taken from mentioned above documentation.

Both functions work only on regular dataset.

Longer

pivot->longer converts columns to rows. Column names are treated as data.

Arguments:

  • dataset
  • columns selector
  • options:
    • :target-columns - names of the columns created or columns pattern (see below) (default: :$column)
    • :value-column-name - name of the column for values (default: :$value)
    • :splitter - string, regular expression or function which splits source column names into data
    • :drop-missing? - remove rows with missing? (default: true)
    • :datatypes - map of target columns data types
    • :coerce-to-number - try to convert extracted values to numbers if possible (default: true)

:target-columns - can be:

  • column name - source columns names are put there as a data
  • column names as seqence - source columns names after split are put separately into :target-columns as data
  • pattern - is a sequence of names, where some of the names are nil. nil is replaced by a name taken from splitter and such column is used for values.

Create rows from all columns but "religion".

When data contains multiple observations per row, we can use splitter and pattern for target columns to create new columns and put values there. In following dataset we have two obseravations dob and gender for two childs. We want to put child infomation into the column and leave dob and gender for values.

Wider

pivot->wider converts rows to columns.

Arguments:

  • dataset
  • columns-selector - values from selected columns are converted to new columns
  • value-columns - what are values

When multiple columns are used as columns selector, names are joined using :concat-columns-with option. :concat-columns-with can be a string or function (default: “_“). Function accepts sequence of names.

When columns-selector creates non unique set of values, they are folded using :fold-fn (default: vec) option.

When value-columns is a sequence, multiple observations as columns are created appending value column names into new columns. Column names are joined using :concat-value-with option. :concat-value-with can be a string or function (default: “-”). Function accepts current column name and value.


Use station as a name source for columns and seen for values

Join/Concat Datasets

Dataset join and concatenation functions.

Joins accept left-side and right-side datasets and columns selector. Options are the same as in tech.ml.dataset functions.

A column selector can be a map with :left and :right keys to specify column names separate for left and right dataset.

The difference between tech.ml.dataset join functions are: arguments order (first datasets) and possibility to join on multiple columns.

Multiple columns joins create temporary index column from column selection. The method for creating index is based on :hashing option and defaults to identity. Prior to 7.000-beta-50 hash function was used, which caused hash collision for certain cases.

Additionally set operations are defined: intersect and difference.

To concat two datasets rowwise you can choose:

  • concat - concats rows for matching columns, the number of columns should be equal.
  • union - like concat but returns unique values
  • bind - concats rows add missing, empty columns

To add two datasets columnwise use bind. The number of rows should be equal.

Datasets used in examples:

(def ds1 (tc/dataset {:a [1 2 1 2 3 4 nil nil 4]
                       :b (range 101 110)
                       :c (map str "abs tract")}))
(def ds2 (tc/dataset {:a [nil 1 2 5 4 3 2 1 nil]
                      :b (range 110 101 -1)
                      :c (map str "datatable")
                      :d (symbol "X")

Hashing

When :hashing option is used, data from join columns are preprocessed by applying join-columns funtion with :result-type set to the value of :hashing. This helps to create custom joining behaviour. Function used for hashing will get vector of row values from join columns.

In the following example we will join columns on value modulo 5.

(tc/left-join ds1 ds2 :b {:hashing (fn [[v]] (mod v 5))})

left-outer-join [16 8]:

Split into train/test

In ML world very often you need to test given model and prepare collection of train and test datasets. split creates new dataset with two additional columns:

  • :$split-name - with :train, :test, :split-2, … values
  • :$split-id - id of splitted group (for k-fold and repeating)

split-type can be one of the following:

  • :kfold (default) - k-fold strategy, :k defines number of folds (defaults to 5), produces k splits
  • :bootstrap - :ratio defines ratio of observations put into result (defaults to 1.0), produces 1 split
  • :holdout - split into two or more parts with given ratio(s) (defaults to 2/3), produces 1 split
  • :holdouts - splits into two parts for ascending ratio. Range of rations is given by steps option
  • :loo - leave one out, produces the same number of splits as number of observations

:holdout can accept also probabilites or ratios and can split to more than 2 subdatasets

Additionally you can provide:

  • :seed - for random number generator
  • :shuffle? - turn on/off shuffle of the rows (default: true)
  • :repeats - repeat procedure :repeats times
  • :partition-selector - same as in group-by for stratified splitting to reflect dataset structure in splits.
  • :split-names names of subdatasets different than default, ie. [:train :test :split-2 ...]
  • :split-col-name - a column where name of split is stored, either :train or :test values (default: :$split-name)
  • :split-id-col-name - a column where id of the train/test pair is stored (default: :$split-id)

In case of grouped dataset each group is processed separately.

Pipeline

tablecloth.pipeline exports special versions of API which create functions operating only on dataset. This creates the possibility to chain operations and compose them easily.

There are two ways to create pipelines:

  • functional, as a composition of functions
  • declarative, separating task declarations and concrete parametrization.

Pipeline operations are prepared to work with metamorph library. That means that result of the pipeline is wrapped into a map and dataset is stored under :metamorph/data key.

Warning: Duplicated metamorph pipeline functions are removed from tablecloth.pipeline namespace.

Functions

This API doesn’t provide any statistical, numerical or date/time functions. Use below namespaces:

Namespace functions
tech.v3.datatype.functional primitive oprations, reducers, statistics
tech.v3.datatype.datetime date/time converters and operations
