Scope through variables using mutate_at/ ifelse creating new variables - r

I have this code checking for outliers (pseudo outliers in this data -- only 1.25sd plus the mean in this example) using a function but for scaling it up for many variables without specifying each ifelse would there be a way?
library(tidyverse)
meanplusd <- function (var){mean(var, na.rm = TRUE)+(1.25*(sd(var, na.rm = TRUE)))}
mtcars%>%
mutate_at(vars(drat:qsec), .funs = list(meanplus = ~ meanplusd(.))) %>%
mutate(outlier_drat = ifelse(drat > drat_meanplus,1,0),
outlier_wt = ifelse(wt > wt_meanplus,1,0),
outlier_qsec = ifelse(qsec > qsec_meanplus ,1,0)) %>%
filter_at(vars(outlier_drat:outlier_qsec), any_vars (.== 1)) %>%
select(-c(drat_meanplus:qsec_meanplus))

Open to non-tidyverse ways too for learning purposes.

You could determine outliers all in one function:
is_outlier <- function(var) {
as.numeric(var > na.omit(var) %>% {mean(.) + 1.25*sd(.)})
}
mtcars %>%
mutate_at(vars(drat:qsec), .funs = list(outlier = ~ is_outlier(.))) %>%
filter_at(vars(drat_outlier:qsec_outlier), any_vars (.== 1))
mpg cyl disp hp drat wt qsec vs am gear carb drat_outlier wt_outlier qsec_outlier
1 18.1 6 225.0 105 2.76 3.460 20.22 1 0 3 1 0 0 1
2 22.8 4 140.8 95 3.92 3.150 22.90 1 0 4 2 0 0 1
3 10.4 8 472.0 205 2.93 5.250 17.98 0 0 3 4 0 1 0
4 10.4 8 460.0 215 3.00 5.424 17.82 0 0 3 4 0 1 0
5 14.7 8 440.0 230 3.23 5.345 17.42 0 0 3 4 0 1 0
6 30.4 4 75.7 52 4.93 1.615 18.52 1 1 4 2 1 0 0
7 26.0 4 120.3 91 4.43 2.140 16.70 0 1 5 2 1 0 0

If you only want to filter the rows you could directly use filter_at and apply meanplusd function
library(dplyr)
mtcars %>% filter_at(vars(drat:qsec), any_vars(. > meanplusd(.)))
# mpg cyl disp hp drat wt qsec vs am gear carb
#1 18.1 6 225.0 105 2.76 3.460 20.22 1 0 3 1
#2 22.8 4 140.8 95 3.92 3.150 22.90 1 0 4 2
#3 10.4 8 472.0 205 2.93 5.250 17.98 0 0 3 4
#4 10.4 8 460.0 215 3.00 5.424 17.82 0 0 3 4
#5 14.7 8 440.0 230 3.23 5.345 17.42 0 0 3 4
#6 30.4 4 75.7 52 4.93 1.615 18.52 1 1 4 2
#7 26.0 4 120.3 91 4.43 2.140 16.70 0 1 5 2
Or in base R we can use sapply over selected columns and use rowSums
mtcars[rowSums(sapply(mtcars[5:7], function(x) x > meanplusd(x))) > 0, ]
However, if you want new columns with the outlier value you can do something like
df <- mtcars
cols <- names(df)[5:7]
df[paste0(cols, "_outlier")] <- lapply(mtcars[cols],function(x) +(x > meanplusd(x)))
df[rowSums(df[paste0(cols, "_outlier")]) > 0, ]

Correct way of selecting the jth row while using summarise after group_by

My query is: May I use summarise after group_by like this:
mydataset %>%
arrange(grouping_variable,ordering_variable) %>%
group_by(grouping_variable) %>% summarise(answer = another_variable[j])
I expect to see the jth ranked row in each group when I do the above.
I think the above is correct but not mentioned in the documentation.
I ran the following experiment to determine this.
Here is the whole data set:

mutate a variable with curly-curly [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
Use dynamic name for new column/variable in `dplyr`
(10 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I've used curly-curly with group_by and summarise as described in the rlang announcement. But I can't get it to work when mutating a variable in place. What's the best way to do this currently with dplyr?
Say I want to supply an unquoted column name and have it mutated, here's a toy example function that doesn't work:
my_fun <- function(dat, var_name){
dat %>%
mutate({{var_name}} = 1)
}
my_fun(mtcars, cyl)
What should that mutate line be to change any column in mtcars to be a constant?
You need to use the assignment operator (:=) if you want to use the curly-curly to specify a name on the left hand side of an assignment in mutate:
my_fun <- function(dat, var_name){
dat %>%
mutate({{var_name}} := 1)
}
Which allows:
my_fun(mtcars, cyl)

Optimize/Vectorize Database Query with R

I am attempting to use R to query a large database. Due to the size of the database, I have written the query to fetch 100 rows at a time My code looks something like:
library(RJDBC)
library(DBI)
library(tidyverse)
options(java.parameters = "-Xmx8000m")
drv<-JDBC("driver name", "driver path.jar")
conn<-
dbConnect(
drv,
"database info",
"username",
"password"
)
query<-"SELECT * FROM some_table"
hc<-tibble()
res<-dbSendQuery(conn,query)
repeat{
chunk<-dbFetch(res,100)
if(nrow(chunk)==0){break}
hc<-bind_rows(hc,chunk)
print(nrow(hc))
}
Basically, I would like write something that does the same thing, but via the combination of function and lapply. In theory, given the way R processes data via loops, using lapply will speed up query. Some understanding of the dbFetch function may help. Specifically, how in the repeat loop it doesn't just keep selecting the first initial 100 rows.
I have tried the following, but nothing works:
df_list <- lapply(query , function(x) dbGetQuery(conn, x))
hc<-tibble()
res<-dbSendQuery(conn,query)
test_query<-function(x){
chunk<-dbFetch(res,100)
if(nrow(chunk)==0){break}
print(nrow(hc))
}
bind_rows(lapply(test_query,res))
Consider following the example in dbFetch docs that checks for completed status of fetch, dbHasCompleted. Then, for memory efficiency build a list of data frames/tibbles with lapply then row bind once outside the loop.
rs <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT * FROM some_table")
run_chunks <- function(i, res) {
# base::transform OR dplyr::mutate
# base::tryCatch => for empty chunks depending on chunk number
chunk <- tryCatch(transform(dbFetch(res, 100), chunk_no = i),
error = function(e) NULL)
return(chunk)
}
while (!dbHasCompleted(rs)) {
# PROVIDE SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF CHUNKS (table rows / fetch rows)
df_list <- lapply(1:5, run_chunks, res=rs)
}
# base::do.call(rbind, ...) OR dplyr::bind_rows(...)
final_df <- do.call(rbind, df_list)
Demonstration with in-memory SQLite database of mtcars:
con <- dbConnect(RSQLite::SQLite(), ":memory:")
dbWriteTable(con, "mtcars", mtcars)
run_chunks <- function(i, res) {
chunk <- dbFetch(res, 10)
return(chunk)
}
rs <- dbSendQuery(con, "SELECT * FROM mtcars")
while (!dbHasCompleted(rs)) {
# PROVIDE SUFFICIENT NUMBER OF CHUNKS (table rows / fetch rows)
df_list <- lapply(1:5, function(i)
print(run_chunks(i, res=rs))
)
}
do.call(rbind, df_list)
dbClearResult(rs)
dbDisconnect(con)
Output (5 chunks of 10 rows, 10 rows, 10 rows, 2 rows, 0 rows, and full 32 rows)

The following works well, as it allows the user to customize the size and number of chunks. Ideally, the function would be Vectorized somehow.
I explored getting the number of rows to automatically set the chunk number, but I couldn't find any methods without actually needing to perform the query first. Adding a large number of chunks doesn't add a ton of extra process time. The performance improvement over the repeat approach depends on the size of the data, but the bigger the data the bigger the performance improvement.
Chunks of n = 1000 seem to consistently produce the best results. Any suggestions to these points would be much appreciated.
Solution:
library(RJDBC)
library(DBI)
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
res<-dbSendQuery(conn,"SELECT * FROM some_table")
##Multiplied together need to be greater than N
chunk_size<-1000
chunk_number<-150
run_chunks<-
function(chunk_number, res, chunk_size) {
chunk <-
tryCatch(
dbFetch(res, chunk_size),
error = function(e) NULL
)
if(!is.null(chunk)){
return(chunk)
}
}
dat<-
bind_rows(
lapply(
1:chunk_number,
run_chunks,
res,
chunk_size
)
)

Filter values in multiple dataframes

I can not get my head around this. I have a dataset which contains a data.frame in per day for 3 years, so i have a list with 1000 dataframes.
I want to filter all dataframes like in the example below. I know I could easily filter (or use rbindlist), first and then do the split, but I desire a way to apply a filter function to multiple dataframes. Can you help me? The code below does not work, but hope it helps to make clear what I want to archieve.
dflist <- mtcars %>%
split(.$cyl)
lapply(dflist, function(x) dplyr::filter(x[["mpg"]] > 10))
The filter works on a data.frame/tbl_df. Instead, we are extracting a vector (x[["mpg"]])
library(tidyverse)
filter(mtcars$mpg > 10)
Error in UseMethod("filter_") : no applicable method for 'filter_'
applied to an object of class "logical"
and apply filter on it.
We need to apply filter on the data.frame itself
map(dflist, ~ .x %>%
filter(mpg > 10))

dplyr/rlang: parse_expr with multiple expressions

dplyr/rlang: parse_expr with multiple expressions
For example if i want to parse some string to mutate i can
e1 = "vs + am"
mtcars %>% mutate(!!parse_expr(e1))
But when i want to parse any text with special characters like "," it will give me an error,
e2 = "vs + am , am +vs"
mtcars %>% mutate(!!parse_expr(e2))
Error in parse(text = x) : <text>:1:9: unexpected ','
1: vs + am ,
^
Are there any ways to work around this?
Thanks
We can use the triple-bang operator with the plural form parse_exprs and a modified e2 expression to parse multiple expressions (see ?parse_quosures):
Explanation:
Multiple expressions in e2 need to be separated either by ; or by new lines.
From ?quasiquotation: The !!! operator unquotes and splices its argument. The argument should represents a list or a vector.
e2 = "vs + am ; am +vs";
mtcars %>% mutate(!!!parse_exprs(e2))

You could always split them outside the expressions for example:
e2 = "vs + am"
e3 = "am +vs"
mtcars %>% mutate(!!parse_expr(e2),!!parse_expr(e3))
You can do this with parse_exprs and a semicolon instead of a comma thanks #Maurits Evers.
!!! takes a list of elements and splices them into to the current call.
e2 = "vs + am ; am +vs"
mtcars %>% mutate(!!!parse_exprs(e2))
Here a little trick I use to name variables (as Genom asked)
Exemple with 2 named expressions :
across_funs <- function(x, .fns, .cols) {
stopifnot(length(.fns) == length(.cols))
stopifnot(all(sapply(.fns, class) == "call"))
for (i in 1:length(.fns)) {
x <- x %>% mutate(!!.cols[i] := !!.fns[[i]])
}
return(x)
}
funs = parse_exprs(c("vs+am", "am+vs"))
cols = c("var1", "var2")
mtcars %>% across_funs(.fns = funs, .cols = cols)
