我会使用numpy的randn:

In [11]: df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(100, 2))

In [12]: msk = np.random.rand(len(df)) < 0.8

In [13]: train = df[msk]

In [14]: test = df[~msk]

为了证明这是有效的:

In [15]: len(test)
Out[15]: 21

In [16]: len(train)
Out[16]: 79

示例方法选择数据的一部分，您可以先通过传递种子值来打乱数据。

train = df.sample(frac=0.8, random_state=42)

对于测试集，您可以删除通过train DF索引的行，然后重置新DF的索引。

test = df.drop(train_data.index).reset_index(drop=True)

import pandas as pd

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

datafile_name = 'path_to_data_file'

data = pd.read_csv(datafile_name)

target_attribute = data['column_name']

X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(data, target_attribute, test_size=0.8)

您可以使用df.as_matrix()函数并创建Numpy-array并传递它。

Y = df.pop()
X = df.as_matrix()
x_train, x_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, Y, test_size = 0.2)
model.fit(x_train, y_train)
model.test(x_test)

shuffle = np.random.permutation(len(df))
test_size = int(len(df) * 0.2)
test_aux = shuffle[:test_size]
train_aux = shuffle[test_size:]
TRAIN_DF =df.iloc[train_aux]
TEST_DF = df.iloc[test_aux]

Scikit Learn的train_test_split就是一个很好的例子。它将拆分numpy数组和数据框架。

from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split

train, test = train_test_split(df, test_size=0.2)
