pandas-dataset 0.1.4

Python Datasets on top of Pandas

Pandas Dataset library

Wrapper on top of pandas to support nested datasets from pandas dataframes provided as dicts.

Readers for CSV and parquet.

Minimal support for adding new features.

Usage

Copy paste from the examples.

#!/usr/bin/env python3
from pprint import pprint
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from pandas_dataset import Dataset

n_root, n_nested = 100, 300 # 100 rows in root df, 300 in the nested one which joins the root one
df_root = pd.DataFrame({"column": np.random.randn(100,), # random floats
                        "column2": [''.join(chr(_y) for _y in y) for y in np.random.randint(ord("A"), ord("z"), # text
                                    size=(100, 10))]}).set_index(pd.Index(range(100), name="root_index"))
df_nested = pd.DataFrame({"column3": [x.astype(object) for x in np.random.randn(300, 20)], # vector column (embeddings)
                          "root_index": np.random.randint(0, 100, size=(300, )) # join key with df_root
                          })
dataset = Dataset({"root": df_root, "nested": df_nested})
print(dataset)
pprint(dataset.dtypes)

Outputs:

[20240311 12:06-WARNING] Data group 'nested' has empty index name. Defaulting to 'nested' (internal.py:75)
Dataset: 'root ('root_index')':  (100, 2) 'nested ('nested')':  (300, 2)
{'nested': {'column3': 'vector', 'nested': 'int', 'root_index': 'int'},
 'root': {'column': 'float', 'column2': 'object', 'root_index': 'int'}}

Explanation:

• we print the index a well in the dtypes. root_index is the index of df_root. nested is the index of df_nested which is automatically added because we provide an empty index name (no set_index) so the name is taken from the table name (key of the dict to the constructor)
• column is a float column with random numbers
• column2 is an object column (text)
• column3 is a vector column (arrays) which can be used for embeddings purposes (i.e. knn embedding)
• nested is the join key from df_nested to df_root so each entry in the nested df is directly mapped to the entry in the root df!
