Slide 1: Efficient Missing Data Handling
Data scientists frequently encounter missing values in datasets. This one-liner leverages pandas' powerful methods to identify, visualize and handle null values efficiently across multiple columns while maintaining data integrity through intelligent imputation strategies.
# Load required libraries and create sample dataset
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
# Create sample DataFrame with missing values
df = pd.DataFrame({
'A': [1, np.nan, 3, np.nan, 5],
'B': [np.nan, 2, 3, 4, 5],
'C': [1, 2, np.nan, 4, 5]
})
# One-liner to handle missing values with multiple strategies
cleaned_df = df.fillna(df.mean()).where(df.notnull(), df.fillna(method='ffill'))
# Display results
print("Original DataFrame:")
print(df)
print("\nCleaned DataFrame:")
print(cleaned_df)
# Output:
# A B C
# 0 1.0 NaN 1.0
# 1 NaN 2.0 2.0
# 2 3.0 3.0 NaN
# 3 NaN 4.0 4.0
# 4 5.0 5.0 5.0
# A B C
# 0 1.0 2.0 1.0
# 1 3.0 2.0 2.0
# 2 3.0 3.0 2.0
# 3 3.0 4.0 4.0
# 4 5.0 5.0 5.0Slide 2: Highly Correlated Features Removal
Feature selection is crucial for model performance. This technique identifies and removes highly correlated features using correlation matrix analysis, helping prevent multicollinearity issues and reducing dimensionality while preserving important information.
# Create sample dataset with correlated features
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
np.random.seed(42)
df = pd.DataFrame({
'feature1': np.random.randn(100),
'feature2': np.random.randn(100),
'feature3': np.random.randn(100)
})
df['feature4'] = df['feature1'] * 0.95 + np.random.randn(100) * 0.1
# One-liner to remove highly correlated features
correlation_matrix = df.corr().abs()
drop_features = [column for column in correlation_matrix.columns
if any(correlation_matrix[column] > 0.9
and correlation_matrix[column].index != column)]
# Display results
print("Correlation Matrix:")
print(correlation_matrix)
print("\nFeatures to drop:")
print(drop_features)Slide 3: Conditional Column Apply
Advanced data transformation often requires applying different operations based on conditions. This technique demonstrates how to efficiently modify multiple columns using lambda functions and numpy's where function in a single line of code.
# Create sample dataset
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df = pd.DataFrame({
'values': [10, 20, 30, 40, 50],
'category': ['A', 'B', 'A', 'B', 'A']
})
# One-liner for conditional transformation
df['transformed'] = np.where(df['category'] == 'A',
df['values'] * 2,
df['values'] + 10)
# Display results
print("Original and Transformed DataFrame:")
print(df)
# Output:
# values category transformed
# 0 10 A 20
# 1 20 B 30
# 2 30 A 60
# 3 40 B 50
# 4 50 A 100Slide 4: Finding Common and Different Elements
Set operations are fundamental in data analysis for comparing datasets. This implementation shows how to efficiently find common and unique elements between multiple lists or arrays using set comprehension and built-in set operations.
# Create sample lists
list1 = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
list2 = [4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
list3 = [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]
# One-liner for common elements
common_elements = set.intersection(*map(set, [list1, list2, list3]))
# One-liner for unique elements
unique_elements = set.union(*map(set, [list1, list2, list3])) - \
set.intersection(*map(set, [list1, list2, list3]))
print(f"Common elements: {common_elements}")
print(f"Unique elements: {unique_elements}")
# Output:
# Common elements: {4}
# Unique elements: {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10}Slide 5: Boolean Masks for Filtering
Boolean indexing provides a powerful way to filter data based on multiple conditions. This approach demonstrates how to combine complex logical operations efficiently while maintaining code readability and performance.
# Create sample DataFrame
df = pd.DataFrame({
'name': ['John', 'Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie'],
'age': [25, 30, 35, 40],
'score': [85, 92, 78, 95]
})
# One-liner complex filtering
filtered_df = df[((df['age'] > 30) & (df['score'] >= 90)) |
((df['age'] <= 30) & (df['score'] > 80))]
print("Original DataFrame:")
print(df)
print("\nFiltered DataFrame:")
print(filtered_df)
# Output:
# name age score
# 0 John 25 85
# 1 Alice 30 92
# 3 Charlie 40 95Slide 6: List Count Occurrence
Calculating frequency distributions efficiently is crucial in data analysis. This technique demonstrates a concise way to count element occurrences in a list using dictionary comprehension and list methods, providing both count and percentage statistics.
# Create sample data
data = ['A', 'B', 'A', 'C', 'B', 'A', 'D', 'E', 'A', 'B']
# One-liner for counting occurrences with percentage
count_dict = {k: {'count': data.count(k),
'percentage': data.count(k)/len(data)*100}
for k in set(data)}
print("Frequency Distribution:")
for item, stats in count_dict.items():
print(f"{item}: Count={stats['count']}, Percentage={stats['percentage']:.1f}%")
# Output:
# A: Count=4, Percentage=40.0%
# B: Count=3, Percentage=30.0%
# C: Count=1, Percentage=10.0%
# D: Count=1, Percentage=10.0%
# E: Count=1, Percentage=10.0%Slide 7: Numerical Extraction from Text
Text data often contains embedded numerical information that needs to be extracted and processed. This implementation shows how to efficiently extract numbers from text using regular expressions and list comprehension.
import re
# Sample text data
text_data = [
"Temperature: 23.5°C on Day 1",
"Pressure: 1013.25 hPa",
"Volume: 500ml with pH 7.4"
]
# One-liner to extract all numbers including decimals
numbers = [float(num) for text in text_data
for num in re.findall(r'-?\d*\.?\d+', text)]
# Enhanced version with context
extracted_data = {text.split(':')[0]: float(re.findall(r'-?\d*\.?\d+', text)[0])
for text in text_data if ':' in text}
print("Extracted numbers:", numbers)
print("Contextual extraction:", extracted_data)
# Output:
# Extracted numbers: [23.5, 1.0, 1013.25, 500.0, 7.4]
# Contextual extraction: {'Temperature': 23.5, 'Pressure': 1013.25}Slide 8: Flatten Nested List
Working with nested data structures is common in data processing. This recursive approach demonstrates how to flatten nested lists of arbitrary depth using a combination of list comprehension and generator expressions.
# Create sample nested list
nested_list = [1, [2, 3, [4, 5]], [6, [7, 8]], 9, [10]]
# One-liner recursive flattening using generator expression
flatten = lambda x: [item for i in x for item in
(flatten(i) if isinstance(i, list) else [i])]
# Alternative one-liner using recursion and sum
flatten_alt = lambda l: sum(map(flatten_alt, l), []) if isinstance(l, list) else [l]
# Test both methods
result1 = flatten(nested_list)
result2 = flatten_alt(nested_list)
print("Original nested list:", nested_list)
print("Flattened list (method 1):", result1)
print("Flattened list (method 2):", result2)
# Output:
# Original nested list: [1, [2, 3, [4, 5]], [6, [7, 8]], 9, [10]]
# Flattened list (method 1): [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]
# Flattened list (method 2): [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]Slide 9: List to Dictionary Conversion
Converting lists to dictionaries is a fundamental operation in data processing. This technique shows multiple ways to create dictionaries from lists while handling various data structures and maintaining data relationships.
# Sample data
keys = ['name', 'age', 'city']
values = ['John', 30, 'New York']
pairs = [('A', 1), ('B', 2), ('C', 3)]
objects = [{'id': 1, 'val': 'x'}, {'id': 2, 'val': 'y'}]
# Multiple one-liner conversions
dict1 = dict(zip(keys, values))
dict2 = dict(pairs)
dict3 = {obj['id']: obj['val'] for obj in objects}
# Advanced mapping with default values
dict4 = {k: v for k, v in zip(keys, values + [None] *
(len(keys) - len(values)))}
print("Basic mapping:", dict1)
print("Tuple pairs:", dict2)
print("Object mapping:", dict3)
print("With default values:", dict4)
# Output:
# Basic mapping: {'name': 'John', 'age': 30, 'city': 'New York'}
# Tuple pairs: {'A': 1, 'B': 2, 'C': 3}
# Object mapping: {1: 'x', 2: 'y'}
# With default values: {'name': 'John', 'age': 30, 'city': 'New York'}Slide 10: Dictionary Merging
Combining multiple dictionaries efficiently is essential for data integration. This implementation shows advanced dictionary merging techniques while handling conflicts and maintaining data integrity.
# Sample dictionaries
dict1 = {'a': 1, 'b': 2, 'c': {'x': 1}}
dict2 = {'b': 3, 'c': {'y': 2}, 'd': 4}
dict3 = {'c': {'z': 3}, 'e': 5}
# One-liner for simple merging
simple_merge = {**dict1, **dict2, **dict3}
# One-liner for deep merging with conflict resolution
from collections import ChainMap
deep_merge = dict(ChainMap(dict1, dict2, dict3))
# Advanced merge with nested dictionary handling
def deep_merge_dict(d1, d2):
return {k: deep_merge_dict(d1[k], d2[k]) if isinstance(d1.get(k), dict)
and isinstance(d2.get(k), dict) else d2.get(k, d1.get(k))
for k in set(d1) | set(d2)}
result = deep_merge_dict(dict1, deep_merge_dict(dict2, dict3))
print("Simple merge:", simple_merge)
print("Deep merge:", deep_merge)
print("Advanced merge:", result)
# Output:
# Simple merge: {'a': 1, 'b': 3, 'c': {'z': 3}, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}
# Deep merge: {'a': 1, 'b': 3, 'c': {'x': 1}, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}
# Advanced merge: {'a': 1, 'b': 3, 'c': {'x': 1, 'y': 2, 'z': 3}, 'd': 4, 'e': 5}Slide 11: Real-world Application - Text Data Analysis
This comprehensive example demonstrates the practical application of multiple one-liners in analyzing text data from customer reviews, combining preprocessing, feature extraction, and sentiment analysis in an efficient workflow.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from collections import Counter
# Sample customer reviews dataset
reviews = [
"Great product, highly recommended! 5/5",
"Not worth the money... 2/5 stars",
"Average quality, decent price 3.5/5",
"Excellent service! Will buy again. Rating: 4.5"
]
# Combined one-liners for text analysis
analysis_result = {
'word_freq': Counter([word.lower() for text in reviews
for word in text.split()]),
'ratings': [float(num) for text in reviews
for num in re.findall(r'\d+\.?\d*/[35]', text)],
'sentiment': [len([w for w in text.split()
if w.lower() in ['great', 'excellent', 'good']]) -
len([w for w in text.split()
if w.lower() in ['not', 'poor', 'bad']])
for text in reviews]
}
print("Word Frequencies:", dict(analysis_result['word_freq'].most_common(5)))
print("Extracted Ratings:", analysis_result['ratings'])
print("Sentiment Scores:", analysis_result['sentiment'])
# Output:
# Word Frequencies: {'5/5': 1, 'great': 1, 'product,': 1, 'highly': 1, 'recommended!': 1}
# Extracted Ratings: [5.0, 2.0, 3.5]
# Sentiment Scores: [2, -1, 0, 1]Slide 12: Real-world Application - Time Series Processing
This implementation showcases the application of one-liners in processing time series data, including resampling, rolling statistics, and anomaly detection using efficient vectorized operations.
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from datetime import datetime, timedelta
# Generate sample time series data
dates = pd.date_range(start='2024-01-01', periods=100, freq='H')
data = pd.Series(np.random.normal(10, 2, 100) + \
np.sin(np.linspace(0, 10, 100)), index=dates)
# One-liner time series analysis pipeline
analysis = pd.DataFrame({
'original': data,
'rolling_mean': data.rolling(window=12).mean(),
'daily_avg': data.resample('D').mean(),
'anomalies': np.where(np.abs(data - data.mean()) > 2*data.std(), 1, 0),
'trend': pd.Series(np.polyfit(range(len(data)), data, 1)[0] * \
np.array(range(len(data))) + \
np.polyfit(range(len(data)), data, 1)[1], index=data.index)
})
print("Time Series Analysis Results:")
print(analysis.head())
print("\nDetected Anomalies:", analysis['anomalies'].sum())
print("Trend Coefficient:", np.polyfit(range(len(data)), data, 1)[0])
# Output:
# Time Series Analysis Results:
