使用逻辑（布尔）表达式切片 Pandas Dataframe

Question

当我尝试使用逻辑表达式对我的 Pandas 数据帧进行切片时出现异常。

我的数据具有以下形式：

df
    GDP_norm    SP500_Index_deflated_norm
Year        
1980    2.121190    0.769400
1981    2.176224    0.843933
1982    2.134638    0.700833
1983    2.233525    0.829402
1984    2.395658    0.923654
1985    2.497204    0.922986
1986    2.584896    1.09770

df.info()
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 38 entries, 1980 to 2017
Data columns (total 2 columns):
GDP_norm                     38 non-null float64
SP500_Index_deflated_norm    38 non-null float64
dtypes: float64(2)
memory usage: 912.0 bytes

命令如下：

df[((df['GDP_norm'] >=3.5 & df['GDP_norm'] <= 4.5) & (df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] > 3)) | (

   (df['GDP_norm'] >= 4.0 & df['GDP_norm'] <= 5.0) & (df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] < 3.5))]

错误信息如下：

TypeError: cannot compare a dtyped [float64] array with a scalar of type [bool]

Answer 1

我建议单独创建布尔掩码以获得更好的可读性和更容易的错误处理。

m1 和 m2 代码中缺少 ()，问题在于运算符优先级：

docs - 6.16。运算符优先级 & 的优先级高于 >=:

Operator                                Description

lambda                                  Lambda expression
if – else                               Conditional expression
or                                      Boolean OR
and                                     Boolean AND
not x                                   Boolean NOT
in, not in, is, is not,                 Comparisons, including membership tests    
<, <=, >, >=, !=, ==                    and identity tests
|                                       Bitwise OR
^                                       Bitwise XOR
&                                       Bitwise AND

(expressions...), [expressions...],     Binding or tuple display, list display,       
{key: value...}, {expressions...}       dictionary display, set display

m1 = (df['GDP_norm'] >=3.5) & (df['GDP_norm'] <= 4.5)
m2 = (df['GDP_norm'] >= 4.0) & (df['GDP_norm'] <= 5.0)

m3 = m1 & (df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] > 3)
m4 = m2 & (df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] < 3.5)

df[m3 | m4]

Answer 2

您正在遭受 chained comparisons 的影响。发生的事情是表达式 df['GDP_norm'] >=3.5 & df['GDP_norm'] <= 4.5 被评估为：

df['GDP_norm'] >= (3.5 & df['GDP_norm']) <= 4.5

当然，这会失败，因为 float 无法与 bool 进行比较，如您的错误消息中所述。相反，使用括号来隔离每个布尔掩码并分配给变量：

m1 = (df['GDP_norm'] >= 3.5) & (df['GDP_norm'] <= 4.5)
m2 = df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] > 3

m3 = (df['GDP_norm'] >= 4.0) & (df['GDP_norm'] <= 5.0)
m4 = df['SP500_Index_deflated_norm'] < 3.5

res = df[(m1 & m2) | (m3 & m4)]
