r - 如何基于多列和条件进行模糊连接？

Question

我试图左连接两个数据框(df1、df2)。数据框共有两列:区域和斜率。区域是一个因子列，斜率是数字。

    df1 = data.frame(slope = c(1:6), zone = c(rep("Low", 3), rep("High", 3)))
    df2 = data.frame(slope = c(2.4, 2.4,6.2), zone = c(rep("Low", 1), rep("High", 2)), other = c(rep("a", 1), rep("b", 1), rep("c", 1)))
    df1
    df2

我想加入数据框，以便它们首先在区域上完全匹配，然后是斜率最接近的匹配。如果有两个等距的斜率值，只要一致地应用规则并且不会导致重复的行，连接是向上还是向下舍入都没有关系。

我更喜欢用fuzzy_join 或dplyr 而不是data.table 来做到这一点。

结果应该类似于:

    df3 = data.frame(slope = c(1:6), zone = c(rep("Low", 3), rep("High", 3)), other = c(rep("a", 3), rep("b",1), rep("c",2)))
    df3

其中“other”的值首先由区域确定，然后是最近的斜率。

我试过了:

    distance_left_join(df, df2, by=c("zone"= "zone", "slope"="slope"))

以及其他类型的模糊连接，但我认为它们可能不起作用，因为列的类型不同。我怀疑有一个fuzzy_left_join 解决方案，但我不明白如何创建匹配函数。

以下是如何使用多个 match_funs 进行模糊连接。如果你想混合复杂的 match_funs，你必须自己定义一个函数，就像我在这里所做的那样:Passing arguments into multiple match_fun functions in R fuzzyjoin::fuzzy_join

df1 = data.frame(slope = c(1:6), zone = c(rep("Low", 3), rep("High", 3)))
df2 = data.frame(slope = c(2.4, 2.4,6.2), zone = c(rep("Low", 1), rep("High", 2)), other = c(rep("a", 1), rep("b", 1), rep("c", 1)))

library(fuzzyjoin); library(dplyr)

# First, need to define match_fun_distance. 
# This is copied from the source code for distance_join in https://github.com/dgrtwo/fuzzyjoin
match_fun_distance <- function(v1, v2) {
  
  # settings for this method
  method = "manhattan"
  max_dist = 99
  distance_col = "dist"
  
  if (is.null(dim(v1))) {
    v1 <- t(t(v1))
    v2 <- t(t(v2))
  }
  if (method == "euclidean") {
    d <- sqrt(rowSums((v1 - v2)^2))
  }
  else if (method == "manhattan") {
    d <- rowSums(abs(v1 - v2))
  }
  ret <- tibble::tibble(instance = d <= max_dist)
  if (!is.null(distance_col)) {
    ret[[distance_col]] <- d
  }
  ret
}

(joined_result <- fuzzy_join(df1, df2, 
                             by=c("zone"= "zone", "slope"="slope"), 
                             match_fun = list(`==`, match_fun_distance),
                             mode = "left"))
