Torashii Utils

Utility functions, primarily for data cleaning.

fill_features(df, features, sort_col, over_col)

Cast feature columns to numeric (float), convert NaN and inf values to null, then forward fill nulls for each column of features, sorted on sort_col and partitioned by over_col.

Parameters

df: Polars DataFrame or LazyFrame containing columns sort_col, over_col and each of features features: collection of strings indicating which columns of df are the feature values sort_col: str column of df indicating how to sort over_col: str column of df indicating how to partition

Returns

Polars LazyFrame containing the original columns with cleaned feature data

smooth_features(df, features, sort_col, over_col, window_size)

Smooth the features columns of df by taking the rolling mean of each, sorted over sort_col and partitioned by over_col, using window_size trailing periods for the moving average window.

Parameters

df: Polars DataFrame | LazyFrame containing columns sort_col, over_col and each of features features: collection of strings indicating which columns of df are the feature values sort_col: str column of df indicating how to sort over_col: str column of df indicating how to partition window_size: int number of time periods for the moving average

Returns

Polars LazyFrame containing the original columns, with each of features replaced with moving average

top_n_by_group(df, n, rank_var, group_var, filter=True)

Mark the top n rows in each of group_var according to rank_var descending.

If filter is True, the returned DataFrame contains only the filtered data. If filter is False, the returned DataFrame has all data, with an additional 'rank_mask' column indicating if that row is in the filter.

Parameters

df: Polars DataFrame | LazyFrame n: integer indicating the top rows to take in each group rank_var: str column name to rank on group_var: tuple of str column names to group and sort on filter: boolean indicating how much data to return

Returns

Polars LazyFrame containing original columns and optional filter column
