11.2 时间序列基础
pandas最基本的时间序列类型就是以时间戳(通常以Python字符串或datatime对象表示)为索引的Series:
In [39]: from datetime import datetime
In [40]: dates = [datetime(2011, 1, 2), datetime(2011, 1, 5),
....: datetime(2011, 1, 7), datetime(2011, 1, 8),
....: datetime(2011, 1, 10), datetime(2011, 1, 12)]
In [41]: ts = pd.Series(np.random.randn(6), index=dates)
In [42]: ts
Out[42]:
2011-01-02 -0.204708
2011-01-05 0.478943
2011-01-07 -0.519439
2011-01-08 -0.555730
2011-01-10 1.965781
2011-01-12 1.393406
dtype: float64
这些datetime对象实际上是被放在一个DatetimeIndex中的:
In [43]: ts.index
Out[43]:
DatetimeIndex(['2011-01-02', '2011-01-05', '2011-01-07', '2011-01-08',
'2011-01-10', '2011-01-12'],
dtype='datetime64[ns]', freq=None)
跟其他Series一样,不同索引的时间序列之间的算术运算会自动按日期对齐:
In [44]: ts + ts[::2]
Out[44]:
2011-01-02 -0.409415
2011-01-05 NaN
2011-01-07 -1.038877
2011-01-08 NaN
2011-01-10 3.931561
2011-01-12 NaN
dtype: float64
ts[::2] 是每隔两个取一个。
pandas用NumPy的datetime64数据类型以纳秒形式存储时间戳:
In [45]: ts.index.dtype
Out[45]: dtype('<M8[ns]')
DatetimeIndex中的各个标量值是pandas的Timestamp对象:
In [46]: stamp = ts.index[0]
In [47]: stamp
Out[47]: Timestamp('2011-01-02 00:00:00')
只要有需要,TimeStamp可以随时自动转换为datetime对象。此外,它还可以存储频率信息(如果有的话),且知道如何执行时区转换以及其他操作。稍后将对此进行详细讲解。
索引、选取、子集构造
当你根据标签索引选取数据时,时间序列和其它的pandas.Series很像:
In [48]: stamp = ts.index[2]
In [49]: ts[stamp]
Out[49]: -0.51943871505673811
还有一种更为方便的用法:传入一个可以被解释为日期的字符串:
In [50]: ts['1/10/2011']
Out[50]: 1.9657805725027142
In [51]: ts['20110110']
Out[51]: 1.9657805725027142
对于较长的时间序列,只需传入“年”或“年月”即可轻松选取数据的切片:
In [52]: longer_ts = pd.Series(np.random.randn(1000),
....: index=pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=1000))
In [53]: longer_ts

这里,字符串“2001”被解释成年,并根据它选取时间区间。指定月也同样奏效:
In [55]: longer_ts['2001-05']
Out[55]:
2001-05-01 -0.622547

datetime对象也可以进行切片:
In [56]: ts[datetime(2011, 1, 7):]
Out[56]:
2011-01-07 -0.519439
2011-01-08 -0.555730
2011-01-10 1.965781
2011-01-12 1.393406
dtype: float64
由于大部分时间序列数据都是按照时间先后排序的,因此你也可以用不存在于该时间序列中的时间戳对其进行切片(即范围查询):
In [57]: ts
Out[57]:
2011-01-02 -0.204708
2011-01-05 0.478943
2011-01-07 -0.519439
2011-01-08 -0.555730
2011-01-10 1.965781
2011-01-12 1.393406
dtype: float64
In [58]: ts['1/6/2011':'1/11/2011']
Out[58]:
2011-01-07 -0.519439
2011-01-08 -0.555730
2011-01-10 1.965781
dtype: float64
跟之前一样,你可以传入字符串日期、datetime或Timestamp。注意,这样切片所产生的是原时间序列的视图,跟NumPy数组的切片运算是一样的。
这意味着,没有数据被复制,对切片进行修改会反映到原始数据上。
此外,还有一个等价的实例方法也可以截取两个日期之间TimeSeries:
In [59]: ts.truncate(after='1/9/2011')
Out[59]:
2011-01-02 -0.204708
2011-01-05 0.478943
2011-01-07 -0.519439
2011-01-08 -0.555730
dtype: float64
面这些操作对DataFrame也有效。例如,对DataFrame的行进行索引:
In [60]: dates = pd.date_range('1/1/2000', periods=100, freq='W-WED')
In [61]: long_df = pd.DataFrame(np.random.randn(100, 4),
....: index=dates,
....: columns=['Colorado', 'Texas',
....: 'New York', 'Ohio'])
In [62]: long_df.loc['5-2001']
Out[62]:
Colorado Texas New York Ohio
2001-05-02 -0.006045 0.490094 -0.277186 -0.707213
2001-05-09 -0.560107 2.735527 0.927335 1.513906
2001-05-16 0.538600 1.273768 0.667876 -0.969206
2001-05-23 1.676091 -0.817649 0.050188 1.951312
2001-05-30 3.260383 0.963301 1.201206 -1.852001
带有重复索引的时间序列
在某些应用场景中,可能会存在多个观测数据落在同一个时间点上的情况。下面就是一个例子:
In [63]: dates = pd.DatetimeIndex(['1/1/2000', '1/2/2000', '1/2/2000',
....: '1/2/2000', '1/3/2000'])
In [64]: dup_ts = pd.Series(np.arange(5), index=dates)
In [65]: dup_ts
Out[65]:
2000-01-01 0
2000-01-02 1
2000-01-02 2
2000-01-02 3
2000-01-03 4
dtype: int64
通过检查索引的is_unique属性,我们就可以知道它是不是唯一的:
In [66]: dup_ts.index.is_unique
Out[66]: False
对这个时间序列进行索引,要么产生标量值,要么产生切片,具体要看所选的时间点是否重复:
In [67]: dup_ts['1/3/2000'] # not duplicated
Out[67]: 4
In [68]: dup_ts['1/2/2000'] # duplicated
Out[68]:
2000-01-02 1
2000-01-02 2
2000-01-02 3
dtype: int64
假设你想要对具有非唯一时间戳的数据进行聚合。一个办法是使用groupby,并传入level=0:
In [69]: grouped = dup_ts.groupby(level=0)
In [70]: grouped.mean()
Out[70]:
2000-01-01 0
2000-01-02 2
2000-01-03 4
dtype: int64
In [71]: grouped.count()
Out[71]:
2000-01-01 1
2000-01-02 3
2000-01-03 1
dtype: int64
