我有一个有两列的数据帧。第一列包含类别，如“第一”，“第二”，“第三”，第二列有数字，表示我从“类别”中看到特定组的次数。
例如:
Category Frequency
First 10
First 15
First 5
Second 2
Third 14
Third 20
Second 3
我想按类别对数据进行排序，并将所有频率相加:
Category Frequency
First 30
Second 5
Third 34
在R中怎么做呢?

如果x是一个包含你的数据的数据框架，那么下面的代码将完成你想要的:
require(reshape)
recast(x, Category ~ ., fun.aggregate=sum)
其他回答
你也可以使用by()函数:
x2 <- by(x$Frequency, x$Category, sum)
do.call(rbind,as.list(x2))
其他那些包(plyr，重塑)的好处是返回data.frame，但是by()值得熟悉一下，因为它是一个基函数。
library(plyr)
ddply(tbl, .(Category), summarise, sum = sum(Frequency))
你可以用函数群。sum来自包Rfast。
Category <- Rfast::as_integer(Category,result.sort=FALSE) # convert character to numeric. R's as.numeric produce NAs.
result <- Rfast::group.sum(Frequency,Category)
names(result) <- Rfast::Sort(unique(Category)
# 30 5 34
Rfast有许多组函数和组。和就是其中之一。
rcs提供的答案很有效，也很简单。然而，如果你正在处理更大的数据集，需要性能提升，有一个更快的替代方案:
library(data.table)
data = data.table(Category=c("First","First","First","Second","Third", "Third", "Second"),
Frequency=c(10,15,5,2,14,20,3))
data[, sum(Frequency), by = Category]
# Category V1
# 1: First 30
# 2: Second 5
# 3: Third 34
system.time(data[, sum(Frequency), by = Category] )
# user system elapsed
# 0.008 0.001 0.009
让我们用data.frame和上面的比较一下:
data = data.frame(Category=c("First","First","First","Second","Third", "Third", "Second"),
Frequency=c(10,15,5,2,14,20,3))
system.time(aggregate(data$Frequency, by=list(Category=data$Category), FUN=sum))
# user system elapsed
# 0.008 0.000 0.015
如果你想保留列，这是语法:
data[,list(Frequency=sum(Frequency)),by=Category]
# Category Frequency
# 1: First 30
# 2: Second 5
# 3: Third 34
数据集越大，这种差异就越明显，如下图所示:
data = data.table(Category=rep(c("First", "Second", "Third"), 100000),
Frequency=rnorm(100000))
system.time( data[,sum(Frequency),by=Category] )
# user system elapsed
# 0.055 0.004 0.059
data = data.frame(Category=rep(c("First", "Second", "Third"), 100000),
Frequency=rnorm(100000))
system.time( aggregate(data$Frequency, by=list(Category=data$Category), FUN=sum) )
# user system elapsed
# 0.287 0.010 0.296
对于多个聚合，可以按如下方式组合lapply和.SD
data[, lapply(.SD, sum), by = Category]
# Category Frequency
# 1: First 30
# 2: Second 5
# 3: Third 34
可以使用rowsum函数来计算频率。
data("mtcars")
df <- mtcars
df$cyl <- as.factor(df$cyl)
头部看起来如下:
wt mpg cyl
<dbl> <dbl> <fct>
Mazda RX4 2.620 21.0 6
Mazda RX4 Wag 2.875 21.0 6
Datsun 710 2.320 22.8 4
然后,
rowsum(df$mpg, df$cyl) #values , group
4 293.3
6 138.2
8 211.4
