OptiMask: extracting the largest (non-contiguous) submatrix without NaN

OptiMask: Efficient NaN Data Removal in Python

Introduction

OptiMask is a Python package designed to facilitate the process of removing NaN (Not-a-Number) data from matrices while efficiently computing the largest (and not necessarily contiguous) submatrix without NaN values. This tool prioritizes practicality and compatibility with Numpy arrays and Pandas DataFrames.

Key Features

• Largest Submatrix without NaN: OptiMask calculates the largest submatrix without NaN, enhancing data analysis accuracy.
• Efficient Computation: With optimized computation, OptiMask provides rapid results without undue delays.
• Numpy and Pandas Compatibility: OptiMask seamlessly adapts to both Numpy and Pandas data structures.

Utilization

To employ OptiMask, install the optimask package via pip:

pip install optimask

Usage Example

Import the OptiMask class from the optimask package and utilize its methods for efficient data masking:

from optimask import OptiMask
import numpy as np

# Create a matrix with NaN values
m = 120
n = 7
data = np.zeros(shape=(m, n))
data[24:72, 3] = np.nan
data[95, :5] = np.nan

# Solve for the largest submatrix without NaN values
rows, cols = OptiMask().solve(data)

# Calculate the ratio of non-NaN values in the result
coverage_ratio = len(rows) * len(cols) / data.size

# Check if there are any NaN values in the selected submatrix
has_nan_values = np.isnan(data[rows][:, cols]).any()

# Print or display the results
print(f"Coverage Ratio: {coverage_ratio:.2f}, Has NaN Values: {has_nan_values}")
# Output: Coverage Ratio: 0.85, Has NaN Values: False
