Polars Extension for General Data Science Use

A Polars Plugin aiming to simplify common numerical/string data analysis procedures. This means that the most basic data science, stats, NLP related tasks can be done natively inside a dataframe, thus minimizing the number of dependencies.

Its goal is not to replace SciPy, or NumPy, but rather it tries to improve runtime for common tasks, reduce Python code and UDFs.

See examples here.

Read the docs here.

Currently in Beta. Feel free to submit feature requests in the issues section of the repo.

Disclaimer: this plugin is not tested with streaming mode.

Getting Started

pip install polars_ds

and

import polars_ds as pld

when you want to use the namespaces provided by the package.

Examples

In-dataframe statistical testing

df.select(
    pl.col("group1").stats.ttest_ind(pl.col("group2"), equal_var = True).alias("t-test"),
    pl.col("category_1").stats.chi2(pl.col("category_2")).alias("chi2-test"),
    pl.col("category_1").stats.f_test(pl.col("group1")).alias("f-test")
)

Generating random numbers according to reference column

df.with_columns(
    # Sample from normal distribution, using reference column "a" 's mean and std
    pl.col("a").stats.sample_normal().alias("test1") 
    # Sample from uniform distribution, with low = 0 and high = "a"'s max, and respect the nulls in "a"
