Improving pandas speed for deriving data from other datasets
$begingroup$
I don't want to filter the set I'm starting with or perform mathematical operations on it. Instead, I want to count the number of entries which appear in another set based on the observations here:
Imagine I have a set like this:
year family count
1 A 5
2 B 7
Which continues for some 1000 entries.
And then I also have a separate data set which lists every single element, pretend here it's some kind of firm:
firm_id family year_started year_ended
1234 A 1234 1942
4567 B 1836 2011
...
And that continues for almost half a million entries. How do I most efficiently count the number of entries in the second data set given matches by family and years between year_started and year_ended.
Right now, I'm using an apply function:
def get_count(year, family, a=attributes):
a = a[a['family'].str.startswith(naics_prefix)]
a = a[a['year_started'].apply(lambda d: d.year) <= year]
a = a[a['year_ended'].apply(lambda d: d.year) >= year] # can be 9999-12-31, so must be python date not pandas dt
return len(a)
Invoked by
counts.progress_apply(lambda r: get_count(r['ending_year'], r['family']),
axis=1)
Which understandably takes forever.
