循环到更多的R

一直以来，我一直在使用SO作为资源。 感谢你们共同拥有这样一个伟大的社区。

我试图做一些有点复杂的事情，我现在想的唯一办法就是用一对嵌套for循环（我知道这在R中被折磨）......我有300万条记录 - 奇数课程注册：学生用户ID与课程ID配对。 在每一行中，都有一堆数据，包括开始/结束日期和分数等等。 我需要做的是，对于每个注册，计算该用户在注册课程之前参加的课程的平均分数。

我用for循环的代码如下所示：

data$Mean.Prior.Score <- 0
for (i in as.numeric(rownames(data)) {
    sum <- 0
    count <- 0
    for (j in as.numeric(rownames(data[data$UserID == data$UserID[i],]))) {
            if (data$Course.End.Date[j] < data$Course.Start.Date[i]) {
                sum <- sum + data$Score[j]
                count <- count + 1
            }
    }
if (count != 0)
    data$Mean.Prior.Score[i] <- sum / count
}

我很肯定这样做会起作用，但它的运行速度令人难以置信，我的数据框有三百多万行，但经过10分钟的突破后，外部循环只能运行850条记录。 这似乎比时间复杂性所建议的要慢，尤其是考虑到每个用户平均只有5或6个课程名称。

呵呵，我应该提到我在运行循环之前用as.POSIXct（）转换了日期字符串，所以日期比较步骤不应该太慢......

有一个更好的方法来做到这一点...有什么建议吗？

我发现data.table运行良好。

# Create some data.
library(data.table)
set.seed(1)
n=3e6
numCourses=5 # Average courses per student
data=data.table(UserID=as.character(round(runif(n,1,round(n/numCourses)))),course=1:n,Score=runif(n),CourseStartDate=as.Date('2000-01-01')+round(runif(n,1,365)))
data$CourseEndDate=data$CourseStartDate+round(runif(n,1,100))
setkey(data,UserID)
# test=function(CourseEndDate,Score,CourseStartDate) sapply(CourseStartDate, function(y) mean(Score[y>CourseEndDate]))
# I vastly reduced the number of comparisons with a better "test" function.
test2=function(CourseEndDate,Score,CourseStartDate) {
    o.end = order(CourseEndDate)
    run.avg = cumsum(Score[o.end])/seq_along(CourseEndDate)
    idx=findInterval(CourseStartDate,CourseEndDate[o.end])
    idx=ifelse(idx==0,NA,idx)
    run.avg[idx]
}
system.time(data$MeanPriorScore<-data[,test2(CourseEndDate,Score,CourseStartDate),by=UserID]$V1) 
#  For three million courses, at an average of 5 courses per student:
#    user  system elapsed 
#    122.06    0.22  122.45

运行测试以查看它是否与代码相同：

set.seed(1)
n=1e2
data=data.table(UserID=as.character(round(runif(n,1,1000))),course=1:n,Score=runif(n),CourseStartDate=as.Date('2000-01-01')+round(runif(n,1,365)))
data$CourseEndDate=data$CourseStartDate+round(runif(n,1,100))
setkey(data,UserID)
data$MeanPriorScore<-data[,test2(CourseEndDate,Score,CourseStartDate),by=UserID]$V1
data["246"]
#   UserID course     Score CourseStartDate CourseEndDate MeanPriorScore
#1:    246     54 0.4531314      2000-08-09    2000-09-20      0.9437248
#2:    246     89 0.9437248      2000-02-19    2000-03-02             NA

# A comparison with your for loop (slightly modified)
data$MeanPriorScore.old<-NA # Set to NaN instead of zero for easy comparison.
# I think you forgot a bracket here. Also, There is no need to work with the rownames.
for (i in seq(nrow(data))) { 
    sum <- 0
    count <- 0
    # I reduced the complexity of figuring out the vector to loop through.
    # It will result in the exact same thing if there are no rownames.
    for (j in which(data$UserID == data$UserID[i])) {
            if (data$CourseEndDate[j] <= data$CourseStartDate[i]) {
                sum <- sum + data$Score[j]
                count <- count + 1
            }
    }
    # I had to add "[i]" here. I think that is what you meant.
    if (count != 0) data$MeanPriorScore.old[i] <- sum / count 
}
identical(data$MeanPriorScore,data$MeanPriorScore.old)
# [1] TRUE

这似乎是你想要的

library(data.table) 
# create a data.table object
DT <- data.table(data)
# key by userID 
setkeyv(DT, 'userID')

# for each userID, where the Course.End.Date < Course.Start.Date
# return the mean score

# This is too simplistic
# DT[Course.End.Date < Course.Start.Date,
#   list(Mean.Prior.Score = mean(Score)) , 
#   by = list(userID)]

根据@jorans的评论，这将比上面的代码更复杂。

这只是我认为解决方案可能带来的一个轮廓。 为了简单起见，我将使用plyr来说明所需的步骤。

让我们只限于一个学生的情况。 如果我们可以为一个学生计算这个数值，那么用某种拆分方法来扩展它就很简单了。

所以我们假设我们有一个特定学生的成绩，按课程结束日期排序：

d <- sample(seq(as.Date("2011-01-01"),as.Date("2011-01-31"),by = 1),100,replace = TRUE)
dat <- data.frame(date = sort(d),val = rnorm(100))

首先，我认为你需要按日期总结，然后计算累积运行平均值：

dat_sum <- ddply(dat,.(date),summarise,valsum = sum(val),n = length(val))
dat_sum$mn <- with(dat_sum,cumsum(valsum) / cumsum(n))

最后，您将这些值重新合并到具有重复日期的原始数据中：

dat_merge <- merge(dat,dat_sum[,c("date","mn")])

我可能会写一些在data.table中使用匿名函数完成这些操作的东西，但我怀疑其他人可能会更好地做一些简洁快速的事情。 （特别是，我不建议用plyr实际解决这个问题 ，因为我怀疑它仍然会非常缓慢。）
