Standard deviation of average events per ID in R - r

Background
I've got this dataset d:
d <- data.frame(ID = c("a","a","a","a","a","a","b","b"),
event = c("G12","R2","O99","B4","B4","A24","L5","J15"),
stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
It's got 2 people (IDs) in it, and they each have some events.
The problem
I'm trying to get an average number (count) of events per person, along with a standard deviation for that average, all in one result (it can be a dataframe or not, doesn't matter).
In other words I'm looking for something like this:
| Mean | SD |
|------|------|
| 4.00 | 2.83 |
What I've tried
I'm not far off, I don't think -- it's just that I've got 2 separate pieces of code doing these calculations. Here's the mean:
d %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
summarise(event = length(event)) %>%
summarise(ratio = mean(event))
# A tibble: 1 x 1
ratio
<dbl>
1 4
And here's the SD:
d %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
summarise(event = length(event)) %>%
summarise(sd = sd(event))
# A tibble: 1 x 1
sd
<dbl>
1 2.83
But I when I try to pipe them together like so...
d %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
summarise(event = length(event)) %>%
summarise(ratio = mean(event)) %>%
summarise(sd = sd(event))
... I get an error:
Error in `h()`:
! Problem with `summarise()` column `sd`.
i `sd = sd(event)`.
x object 'event' not found
Any insight?

You have to put the last two calls to summarise() in the same call. The only remaining columns after summarise() will be those you named and the grouping columns, so after your second summarise, the event column no longer exists.
library(dplyr)
d <- data.frame(ID = c("a","a","a","a","a","a","b","b"),
event = c("G12","R2","O99","B4","B4","A24","L5","J15"),
stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
d %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
# the next summarise will be within ID
summarise(event = length(event)) %>%
# this summarise is overall
summarise(sd = sd(event),
ratio = mean(event))
#> # A tibble: 1 × 2
#> sd ratio
#> <dbl> <dbl>
#> 1 2.83 4
The code is a bit confusing because you are renaming the event variable, and doing the first summarise() within groups and the second without grouping. This code would be a little easier to read and get the same result:
d %>%
count(ID) %>%
summarise(sd = sd(n),
ratio = mean(n))

Summing across in a dataframe with condition coming from another column

this is not a very good title for the question. I want to sum across certain columns in a data frame for each group, excluding one column for each of my groups. A simple example would be as follows:
df <- tibble(group_name = c("A", "B","C"), mean_A = c(1,2,3), mean_B = c(2,3,4), mean_C=c(3,4,5))
df %>% group_by(group_name) %>% mutate(m1 = sum(across(contains("mean"))))
This creates column m1, which is the sum across mean_a, mean_b, mean_c for each group. What I want to do is exclude mean_a for group a, mean_b for b and mean_c for c. The following does not work though (not surprisingly).
df %>% group_by(group_name) %>% mutate(m1 = sum(across(c(contains("mean") & !contains(group_name)))))
Do you have an idea how I could do this? My original data contains many more groups, so would be hard to do by hand.
Edit: I have tried the following way which solves it in a rudimentary fashion, but something (?grepl maybe) seems to not work great here and I get the wrong result.
df %>% pivot_longer(!group_name) %>% mutate(value2 = case_when(grepl(group_name, name) ~ 0, TRUE ~ value)) %>% group_by(group_name) %>% summarise(m1 = sum(value2))
Edit2: Found out what's wrong with the above, and below works, but still a lot of warnings so I recommend people to follow TarJae's response below
df %>% pivot_longer(!group_name) %>% group_by(group_name) %>% mutate(value2 = case_when(grepl(group_name, name) ~ 0, TRUE ~ value)) %>% group_by(group_name) %>% summarise(m1 = sum(value2))
Here is another option where you can just use group_name directly with the tidyselect helpers:
df %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(m1 = rowSums(select(across(starts_with("mean")), -ends_with(group_name)))) %>%
ungroup()
Output
group_name mean_A mean_B mean_C m1
<chr> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
1 A 1 2 3 5
2 B 2 3 4 6
3 C 3 4 5 7
How it works
The row-wise output of across is a 1-row tibble containing only the variables that start with "mean".
select unselects the subset of the variables from output by across that end with the value from group_name.
At this point you are left with a 1 x 2 tibble, which is then summed using rowSums.
Here is one way how we could do it:
We create a helper column to match column names
We set value of mean column to zeor if column names matches helper name.
Then we use transmute with select to calculate rowSums
Finally we cbind column m1 to df:
library(dplyr)
df %>%
mutate(helper = paste0("mean_", group_name)) %>%
mutate(across(starts_with("mean"), ~ifelse(cur_column()==helper, 0, .))) %>%
transmute(m1 = select(., contains("mean")) %>%
rowSums()) %>%
cbind(df)
m1 group_name mean_a mean_b mean_c
1 5 a 1 2 3
2 6 b 2 3 4
3 7 c 3 4 5

How to mutate across a dataframe using dimensions instead of column names?

The following bit of code does a nice job of calculating and outputting the proportions of row totals represented by each element in the dataframe named data:
Output:
# A tibble: 4 x 5
# Rowwise:
To A B C Sum
<chr> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
1 A 0.111 0.333 0.556 1
2 B 0.167 0.333 0.5 1
3 C 0.25 0.312 0.438 1
4 Sum 0.189 0.324 0.486 1
Code generating the above:
library(dplyr)
library(tidyverse)
data <-
data.frame(
To = c("A","B","C"),
A = c(1,2,4),
B = c(3,4,5),
C = c(5,6,7)
)
data <- data %>%
replace(is.na(.), 0) %>%
bind_rows(summarise_all(., ~(if(is.numeric(.)) sum(.) else "Sum")))
data <- cbind(data, Sum = rowSums(data[,-1]))
data %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(across(A:Sum, ~ sum(.) / Sum))
The mutate(across(...)...) above references the starting column A as the calculation starting point, which is correct. However, in the larger App this is intended for, the column names are dynamic. So I'd simply like to start with the first numeric column in the dataframe instead of using its name. Below is my attempt to do this:
data %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(across(-1:Sum, ~ sum(.) / Sum))
It calculates correctly but gives me the warning shown below. Is there a better way to do this? Instead of suppressWarnings() which is tempting?
Warning message:
Problem with mutate() input ..1.
i ..1 = across(-1:Sum, ~sum(.)/Sum).
i numerical expression has 4 elements: only the first used
i The warning occurred in row 1.
You can use a predicate function, wrapped in where()
data %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(across(where(is.numeric), ~ sum(.) / Sum))
You could also just de-select the first column with either its name or its index like these example:
data %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(across(-1, ~ sum(.) / Sum))
data %>%
rowwise() %>%
mutate(across(-To, ~ sum(.) / Sum))

Calculating average rle$lengths over grouped data

I would like to calculate duration of state using rle() on grouped data. Here is test data frame:
DF <- read.table(text="Time,x,y,sugar,state,ID
0,31,21,0.2,0,L0
1,31,21,0.65,0,L0
2,31,21,1.0,0,L0
3,31,21,1.5,1,L0
4,31,21,1.91,1,L0
5,31,21,2.3,1,L0
6,31,21,2.75,0,L0
7,31,21,3.14,0,L0
8,31,22,3.0,2,L0
9,31,22,3.47,1,L0
10,31,22,3.930,0,L0
0,37,1,0.2,0,L1
1,37,1,0.65,0,L1
2,37,1,1.089,0,L1
3,37,1,1.5198,0,L1
4,36,1,1.4197,2,L1
5,36,1,1.869,0,L1
6,36,1,2.3096,0,L1
7,36,1,2.738,0,L1
8,36,1,3.16,0,L1
9,36,1,3.5703,0,L1
10,36,1,3.970,0,L1
", header = TRUE, sep =",")
I want to know the average length for state == 1, grouped by ID. I have created a function inspired by: https://www.reddit.com/r/rstats/comments/brpzo9/tidyverse_groupby_and_rle/
to calculate the rle average portion:
rle_mean_lengths = function(x, value) {
r = rle(x)
cond = r$values == value
data.frame(count = sum(cond), avg_length = mean(r$lengths[cond]))
}
And then I add in the grouping aspect:
DF %>% group_by(ID) %>% do(rle_mean_lengths(DF$state,1))
However, the values that are generated are incorrect:
ID
count
avg_length
1 L0
2
2
2 L1
2
2
L0 is correct, L1 has no instances of state == 1 so the average should be zero or NA.
I isolated the problem in terms of breaking it down into just summarize:
DF %>% group_by(ID) %>% summarize_at(vars(state),list(name=mean)) # This works but if I use summarize it gives me weird values again.
How do I do the equivalent summarize_at() for do()? Or is there another fix? Thanks
As it is a data.frame column, we may need to unnest afterwards
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
DF %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
summarise(new = list(rle_mean_lengths(state, 1)), .groups = "drop") %>%
unnest(new)
Or remove the list and unpack
DF %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
summarise(new = rle_mean_lengths(state, 1), .groups = "drop") %>%
unpack(new)
# A tibble: 2 × 3
ID count avg_length
<chr> <int> <dbl>
1 L0 2 2
2 L1 0 NaN
In the OP's do code, the column that should be extracted should be not from the whole data, but from the data coming fromt the lhs i.e. . (Note that do is kind of deprecated. So it may be better to make use of the summarise with unnest/unpack
DF %>%
group_by(ID) %>%
do(rle_mean_lengths(.$state,1))
# A tibble: 2 × 3
# Groups: ID [2]
ID count avg_length
<chr> <int> <dbl>
1 L0 2 2
2 L1 0 NaN

How to transpose character data for unique IDs

Im trying to perform a sum function to count the number of interactions for Unique Id's
So I have something like this:
Client ID
JOE12_EMI
ABC12_CANC
ABC12_EMI
ABC12_RENE
and so on...
It'll also have a column next to it that counts the how many times each unique ID repeats.
Frequency
1
2
2
1
Is there a way that i can have all the activity types (EMI, TELI, PFL) summed for each ID and then placed into new columns?
I've tried to transpose the data by separating the actual ID from the activity type but this doesn't return the sums, thank you for any help. I'm not sure if that's the best way or if transposing the data to wide format and then doing another sum function but I am unsure how to go about it.
separate(frequency, id, c("id", "act_code") )
nd <- melt(frequency, id=(c("id")))
Try this:
library(dplyr)
data=data.frame(Client_ID= c("JOE12_EMI",
"ABC12_CANC",
"ABC12_EMI",
"ABC12_RENE"),
frequency= c(1,2,2,1))
client_and_id <- as.data.frame(do.call(rbind, strsplit(as.character(data$Client_ID), "_")))
names(client_and_id) <- c("client", "id")
data <- cbind(data, client_and_id)
data_sum <- data %>% group_by(id) %>% mutate(sum_freq = sum(frequency))
The output
> data_sum
# A tibble: 4 x 5
# Groups: id [3]
Client_ID frequency client id sum_freq
<fct> <dbl> <fct> <fct> <dbl>
1 JOE12_EMI 1 JOE12 EMI 3
2 ABC12_CANC 2 ABC12 CANC 2
3 ABC12_EMI 2 ABC12 EMI 3
4 ABC12_RENE 1 ABC12 RENE 1
You can also display the output by ID:
distinct(data_sum %>% dplyr::select(id, sum_freq))
# A tibble: 3 x 2
# Groups: id [3]
id sum_freq
<fct> <dbl>
1 EMI 3
2 CANC 2
3 RENE 1
You're on the right track; I think the only thing you need is a group_by. Something like this:
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
df = data.frame(ClientID = c("JOE12_EMI",
"ABC12_CANC",
"ABC12_EMI",
"ABC12_RENE"))
df %>%
separate(ClientID, into = c("id", "act_code"), sep = "_") %>%
group_by(id) %>%
mutate(frequency = n()) %>%
ungroup() %>%
group_by(id, act_code) %>%
mutate(act_frequency = n()) %>%
ungroup() %>%
spread(act_code, act_frequency)
(This does the sum by user and the pivot by activity type separately; it's possible to calculate the sum by user after pivoting, but this way is easier for me to read.)

unexpected row when going from long to wide format with dplyr and tidyr

I've got a data frame (dfdat) with two categorical variables, location and employmentstatus.
I'd like to generate a data frame with the proportions of employment status for each location.
mydf_wide (achieved outcome) is almost what I'm looking for. The problem's that employmentstatus is a variable with two levels, yet there're three rows in mydf_wide. I don't understand why that is, because I'd have expected something similar to mytable (expected outcome).
Any help would be much appreciated.
Starting point (df):
dfdat <- data.frame(location=c("GA","GA","MA","OH","RI","GA","AZ","MA","OH","RI"),employmentstatus=c(1,2,1,2,1,1,1,2,1,1))
Expected outcome (table):
mytable <- table(dfdat$employmentstatus,dfdat$location)
mytable <- round(100*(prop.table(mytable, 2)),1)
Achieved outcome (df):
library(dplyr)
mydf <- dfdat %>%
group_by(location,employmentstatus) %>%
summarise (n = n()) %>%
mutate(freq = round((n / sum(n)*100),1))
library(tidyr)
mydf_wide <- spread(mydf, location, freq)
mydf_wide <- as.data.frame(mydf_wide)
We need to do a second group_by with 'location' to get the sum. Also, instead of grouping and then creating the 'n', count function can be used
dfdat %>%
count(location, employmentstatus) %>%
group_by(location) %>%
mutate(n = round(100*n/sum(n), 2)) %>%
spread(location, n, fill = 0)
# A tibble: 2 x 6
# employmentstatus AZ GA MA OH RI
#* <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl> <dbl>
#1 1 100 66.67 50 50 100
#2 2 0 33.33 50 50 0
If we are using the OP's code, then remove the 'n' column and then do the spread
dfdat %>%
group_by(location,employmentstatus) %>%
summarise (n = n()) %>%
mutate(freq = round((n / sum(n)*100),1)) %>%
select(-n) %>%
spread(location, freq, fill =0)
or update the 'n' column with the output of round and then spread. An extra column in 'n' made sure that the combinations exist in the dataset
