Replace non <NA> with a number from data.frame - r

I'm having some problems to understand the logic of the mistakes I'm getting.
I need to substitute non NA from a data frame with the number 1.
I tested, on a vector -a- , the simple code:
a<-c("a","a","a", NA,"a")
a[!is.na(a)]<-1
And it worked.
But what I need is to apply the same process on a data.frame, imported using:
data<-read.table ("dataframe.csv", header = T, sep = ",",na.strings= c(" ","") )
But when I run the same code as previously written
data$column1[!is.na(data$column1)]<-1
R returns:
Warning message:
In `[<-.factor`(`*tmp*`, !is.na(data$column1), value = c(NA_integer_, :
invalid factor level, NA generated
Does someone have any idea where the problem could be?

in the end I was able to do it using the replace function explained in a topic on this forum
data<-replace(data.frame(lapply(data, as.character), stringsAsFactors = FALSE),
!is.na(data), "1")

Transaction problem in RStudio for tweet apriori analysis

I want to use the apriori algorithm to apply association rules between words on the tweet database I have with RStudio. However, the code below gives an error on a million rows of data, while working on a small number of data. I needed your help as I couldn't understand what caused the error.
TweetTrans <- read.transactions("../input/tweets/output.csv",
rm.duplicates=FALSE,
format = "basket",
sep = ",",
encoding = "UTF-8")
The Error is:
Error in validObject(.Object): invalid class “ngCMatrix” object: row indices are not sorted within columns
Traceback:

Here are some ideas for how to find a rogue line in the data file. The input to read.transactions should be a text file the looks something like
A, B, C
B, C
C, D, E
D, A, B, F
where A, B ,C, etc are the names of the items (probably longer than one character each!)
So you could read in the file using readLines...
data <- readLines("../input/tweets/output.csv")
Each element of data (one per line of the file) should be a string of the form "A, B, C" etc, as above.
You could then use functions (e.g. from the stringr package) to check if any lines contain unusual characters, or have an odd format. Without seeing your file, it is hard to say how to do this, but you might, for example, look for quotes in odd places (str_detect(data, '\\"')) or characters that are not letters, digits , spaces or commas (str_detect(data, "[^\\w\\d\\s,]")).
Another thing you could try is to write a for loop to take each element of data (or perhaps larger chunks if that is too slow), save it as a file, try reading it with read.transactions, and see where it crashes.
for(i in seq_along(data)){
writeLines(data[i], "dummyfile.csv")
trans <- read.transactions("dummyfile.csv",
rm.duplicates=FALSE,
format = "basket",
sep = ",",
encoding = "UTF-8")
}
The value of i when it crashes will give you the problem row number. It might take a long time to run, though!
I ran into a very similar problem: the same error got triggered when trying to cast a list to a transaction object.
I also couldn't easily figure out what lines in the data caused the issue, as it seems to be triggered by a combination of transactions and not necessarily by any individual one, but I managed to track down the source of the problem in this assignment (source):
p <- new("ngCMatrix", p = c(0L, p),
i = as.integer(i) - 1L,
Dim = c(length(levels(i)), length(p)))
My R got pretty rusty over time and I couldn't find an immediate way to patch the code, but I came up with an alternative solution for constructing the ngCMatrix object:
Assume you have the data in a data.frame following some sort of (user, item) format - in your case it would most likely be (tweet_id, term/word)
Create a unique incremental ID for every user and item and add it to your data.frame
Use those ID to create the sparse matrix and - optionally - enrich it with the labels for item and user to make it more interpretable
Finally, cast the sparse matrix to a transaction object
Example (I implemented mine with data.table, but a traditional dataframe implementation would be very similar):
library(Matrix)
library(data.table)
library(arules)
DT <- data.table(user = c('A','A','B','B','A','C','D'),
item = c('AAB','AAA','AAB','BBB','ABA','BBB','AAB'))
# Create user_ids
unique_users <- unique(DT$user)
users <- data.table(user=unique_users,
user_id=c(1:length(unique_users)))
# Repeat for items
unique_items <- unique(DT$item)
items <- data.table(item=unique_items,
item_id=c(1:length(unique_items)))
# Add indexes to original data table (setting keys helps with performance)
DT <- merge.data.table(x=DT, y=users, by='user')
DT <- merge.data.table(x=DT, y=items, by='item')
# Create the sparse matrix
mat <- sparseMatrix(
i = DT$item_id,
j = DT$user_id,
dims = c(nrow(items), nrow(users)),
dimnames = list(items$item, users$user)
)
# transform to arules 'transactions'
txn <- as(op, "transactions")
Please note that this doesn't help understanding what caused the issue, but rather provides a workaround to solve it. In my data.table implementation the code is pretty performant, taking only a few seconds to process over 30M transactions on a laptop-sized machine (2 CPUs, 16gb RAM).

Clustering by M3C package : Error in `[.data.frame`(df, neworder2) : undefined columns selected

I had a similar problem to what posted here. To resolve the issue, followed the answer by #Jack Gisby there. Now a new error showed up:
Working on TCGA data , I am getting the same error (first error):
Error in `.rowNamesDF<-`(x, value = value) :
duplicate 'row.names' are not allowed
running duplicated() on each relevant field returned FALSE.
Her is the second error (just after trimming identifiers to not start with a common string like "TCGA-"):
Error in `[.data.frame`(df, neworder2) : undefined columns selected
> traceback()
5: stop("undefined columns selected")
4: `[.data.frame`(df, neworder2)
3: df[neworder2]
2: M3Creal(as.matrix(mydata), maxK = maxK, reps = repsreal, pItem = pItem,
pFeature = 1, clusterAlg = clusteralg, distance = distance,

dotsize = dotsize, x1 = pacx1, x2 = pacx2, seed = seed, removeplots = removeplots,
silent = silent, fsize = fsize, method = method, objective = objective)
1: M3C(pro.vst, des = clin, removeplots = FALSE, iters = 25, objective = "PAC",
fsize = 8, lthick = 1, dotsize = 1.25)
I've added to an opened issue on the M3C GitHub.
I got the same error as Hamid Ghaedi while running M3C. I managed to track it down to the following line of code (line 476 on the M3C.R file):
df <- data.frame(m_matrix)
Many of my sample names (column names) started with a number and the data.frame() function added an "X" to the beginning of each name that started with a number ("1" becomes "X1"). This caused a mismatch with the names listed in neworder2.
To get around this problem, I changed all of my sample names to start with a letter and M3C is now running correctly.
Edit: This workaround can be easily applied by using the data.frame() function on your input dataset before running M3C.

Selecting features from a feature set using mRMRe package

I am a new user of R and trying to use mRMRe R package (mRMR is one of the good and well known feature selection approaches) to obtain feature subset from a feature set. Please excuse if my question is simple as I really want to know how I can fix an error. Below is the detail.
Suppose, I have a csv file (gene.csv) having feature set of 6 attributes ([G1.1.1.1], [G1.1.1.2], [G1.1.1.3], [G1.1.1.4], [G1.1.1.5], [G1.1.1.6]) and a target class variable [Output] ('1' indicates positive class and '-1' stands for negative class). Here's a sample gene.csv file:
[G1.1.1.1] [G1.1.1.2] [G1.1.1.3] [G1.1.1.4] [G1.1.1.5] [G1.1.1.6] [Output]
11.688312 0.974026 4.87013 7.142857 3.571429 10.064935 -1
12.538226 1.223242 3.669725 6.116208 3.363914 9.174312 1

16.666667 0.333333 7.333333 4.333333 2 8.333333 -1
I am trying to get best feature subset of 2 attributes (out of above 6 attributes) and wrote following R code.
library(mRMRe)
file_n<-paste0("E:\\gene", ".csv")
df <- read.csv(file_n, header = TRUE)
f_data <- mRMR.data(data = data.frame(df))
featureData(f_data)
mRMR.ensemble(data = f_data, target_indices = 7,
feature_count = 2, solution_count = 1)
When I run this code, I am getting following error for the statement f_data <- mRMR.data(data = data.frame(df)):
Error in .local(.Object, ...) :
data columns must be either of numeric, ordered factor or Surv type
However, data in each column of the csv file are real number.So, how can I change the R code to fix this problem? Also, I am not sure what should be the value of target_indices in the statement mRMR.ensemble(data = f_data, target_indices = 7,feature_count = 2, solution_count = 1) as my target class variable name is "[Output]" in the gene.csv file.
I will appreciate much if anyone can help me to obtain the best feature subset based on the gene.csv file using mRMRe R package.
I solved the problem by modifying my code as follows.
library(mRMRe)
file_n<-paste0("E:\\gene", ".csv")
df <- read.csv(file_n, header = TRUE)
df[[7]] <- as.numeric(df[[7]])
f_data <- mRMR.data(data = data.frame(df))
results <- mRMR.classic("mRMRe.Filter", data = f_data, target_indices = 7,
feature_count = 2)
solutions(results)
It worked fine. The output of the code gives the indices of the selected 2 features.
I think it has to do with your Output column which is probably of class integer. You can check that using class(df[[7]]).
To convert it to numeric as required by the warning, just type:
df[[7]] <- as.numeric(df[[7]])
That worked for me.
As for the other question, after reading the documentation, setting target_indices = 7 seems the right choice.

PCA with result non-interactively in R

I send you a message because I would like realise an PCA in R with the package ade4.
I have the data "PAYSAGE" :
All the variables are numeric, PAYSAGE is a data frame, there are no NAS or blank.
But when I do :
require(ade4)
ACP<-dudi.pca(PAYSAGE)
2
I have the message error :
**You can reproduce this result non-interactively with:
dudi.pca(df = PAYSAGE, scannf = FALSE, nf = NA)
Error in if (nf <= 0) nf <- 2 : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
In addition: Warning message:
In as.dudi(df, col.w, row.w, scannf = scannf, nf = nf, call = match.call(), :
NAs introduced by coercion**
I don't understand what does that mean. Have you any idea??
Thank you so much
I'd suggest sharing a data set/example others could access, if possible. This seems data-specific and with NAs introduced by coercion you may want to check the type of your input - typeof(PAYSAGE) - the manual for dudi.pca states it takes a data frame of numeric values as input.
Yes, for example :
ag_div <- c(75362,68795,78384,79087,79120,73155,58558,58444,68795,76223,50696,0,17161,0,0)

replacing a value in column X based on columns Y with R

i've gone through several answers and tried the following but each either yields an error or an un-wanted result:
here's the data:
Network Campaign
Moburst_Chartboost Test Campaign
Moburst_Chartboost Test Campaign
Moburst_Appnext unknown
Moburst_Appnext 1065
i'd like to replace "Test Campaign" with "1055" whenever "Network" == "Moburst_Chartboost". i realize this should be very simple but trying out these:
dataset = read.csv('C:/Users/User/Downloads/example.csv')
for( i in 1:nrow(dataset)){
if(dataset$Network == 'Moburst_Chartboost') dataset$Campaign <- '1055'
}
this yields an error: Warning messages:
1: In if (dataset$Network == "Moburst_Chartboost") dataset$Campaign <- "1055" :
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
2: In if (dataset$Network == "Moburst_Chartboost") dataset$Campaign <- "1055" :
the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
etc.
then i tried:
within(dataset, {
dataset$Campaign <- ifelse(dataset$Network == 'Moburst_Chartboost', '1055', dataset$Campaign)
})
this turned ALL 4 values in row "Campaign" into "1055" over running what was there even when condition isn't met
also this:
dataset$Campaign[which(dataset$Network == 'Moburst_Chartboost')] <- 1055
yields this error, and replaced the values in the two first rows of "Campaign" with NA:
Warning message:
In `[<-.factor`(`*tmp*`, which(dataset$Network == "Moburst_Chartboost"), :
invalid factor level, NA generated
scratching my head here. new to R but this shouldn't be so hard :(
In your first attempt, you're trying to iterate over all the columns, when you only want to change the 2nd column.
In your second, you're trying to assign the value "1055" to all of the 2nd column.
The way to think about it is as an if else, where if the condition in col 1 is met, col 2 is changed, otherwise it remains the same.
dataset <- data.frame(Network = c("Moburst_Chartboost", "Moburst_Chartboost",
"Moburst_Appnext", "Moburst_Appnext"),
Campaign = c("Test Campaign", "Test Campaign",
"unknown", "1065"))
dataset$Campaign <- ifelse(dataset$Network == "Moburst_Chartboost",
"1055",
dataset$Campaign)
head(dataset)
Network Campaign
1 Moburst_Chartboost 1055
2 Moburst_Chartboost 1055
3 Moburst_Appnext unknown
4 Moburst_Appnext 1065
You may also try dataset$Campaign[dataset$Campaign=="Test Campaign"]<-1055 to avoid the use of loops and ifelse statements.
Where dataset
dataset <- data.frame(Network = c("Moburst_Chartboost", "Moburst_Chartboost",
"Moburst_Appnext", "Moburst_Appnext"),
Campaign = c("Test Campaign", "Test Campaign",
"unknown", 1065))
Try the following
dataset = read.csv('C:/Users/User/Downloads/example.csv', stringsAsFactors = F)
for( i in 1:nrow(dataset)){
if(dataset$Network[i] == 'Moburst_Chartboost') dataset$Campaign[i] <- '1055'
}
It seems your forgot the index variable. Without [i] you work on the whole vector of the data frame, resulting in the error/warning you mentioned.
Note that I added stringsAsFactors = F to the read.csv() function to make sure the strings are indeed interpreted as strings and not factors. Using factors this would result in an error like this
In `[<-.factor`(`*tmp*`, i, value = c(NA, 2L, 3L, 1L)) :
invalid factor level, NA generated
Alternatively you can do the following without using a for loop:
idx <- which(dataset$Network == 'Moburst_Chartboost')
dataset$Campaign[idx] <- '1055'
Here, idx is a vector containing the positions where Network has the value 'Moburst_Chartboost'
thank you for the help! not elegant, but since this lingered with me when going to sleep last night i decided to try to bludgeon this with some ugly code but it worked too - just as a workaround...separated to two data frames, replaced all values and then binded back...
# subsetting only chartboost
chartboost <- subset(dataset, dataset$Network=='Moburst_Chartboost')
# replace all values in Campaign
chartboost$Campaign <-sub("^.*", "1055",chartboost$Campaign)
#subsetting only "not chartboost"
notChartboost <-subset(dataset, dataset$Network!='Moburst_Chartboost')
# binding back to single dataframe
newSet <- rbind(chartboost, notChartboost)
Ugly as a duckling but worked :)
