probability or statistics - How to partition a list into sublists in a similar way to Histogram


I have a list of list as below (I show part of it)


{{1902, 0.4662}, {1903, 0.22443}, {1905, 0.02936}, {1906, 

  0.02702}, {1908, -0.08354}, {1909, -0.05241}, {1911, 
  0.02388}, {1912, 0.03738}, {1914, 0.25015}, {1915, 0.2831}, {1917, 
  0.4415}, {1919, 0.18315}, {1921, 0.2256}, {1923, 0.24132}, {1926, 
  0.21473}, {1928, 0.29596}, {1930, 0.47693}, {1933, 0.41607}, {1935, 
  0.22161}, {1937, 0.3322}, {1940, 0.2099}, {1942, 0.23376}, {1944, 
  0.44114}, {1947, 0.15876}, {1949, 0.43953}, {1951, 0.71407}, {1954, 
  0.9595}, {1956, 0.59436}, {2000, 0.6832}, {2004, 0.86861}, {2007, 
  0.48201}, {2011, 0.70796}, {2015, 0.57029}, {2020, 0.61997}, {2026, 
  0.79266}, {2032, 0.78726}, {2038, 0.83884}}


For example, in {1902,0.4662} "1902" represent time 19:02 and 0.4662 represent the data at time 19:02.


What I want to do is to calculate average of the data in every 5 minutes. That is from 19:02 to 19:06, from 19:07 to 19:11. Notice the time step is not evenly distributed.


Histogram can naturally count how many of the data are in each interval. I want to partition the list like Histogram and then I can calculate average in each interval. And notice that the data may not be in a single day.


I can't figure out an elegant way to do this with built-in function. Can somebody help me?


Besides I think this is a very simple statistical calculation of data. I want to know what software could do this easily and directly.


Update: the full data sample is here http://en.textsave.org/VdL with date information



Answer



One approach:





  1. Create intervals from dataset;


    int = Table[Interval[{j, j + 4}], {j, 1902, 2038, 5}];


  2. Calling your dataset data the means for the desired intervals can be obtained:


    Mean /@ GatherBy[data, IntervalMemberQ[int, #[[1]]] &][[All, All, 2]]


yielding:




{0.186753, -0.0373567, 0.19021, 0.283417, 0.228025, 0.386445, 
0.31884, 0.27105, 0.33745, 0.437453, 0.77693, 0.6832, 0.86861, 
0.594985, 0.57029, 0.61997, 0.79266, 0.78726, 0.83884}

EDIT


Mr. Wizard correctly pointed out the error in my code. My first edit was wrong. The easiest approach (it seems to me) is to convert times to temporal data.


f[x_] := {2013, 9, 28, IntegerPart[x/100], 
  100 (x/100 - IntegerPart[x/100])}

Then using TemporalData



td = TemporalData[{f[#[[1]]], #[[2]]} & /@ data];
answ = TemporalData`Aggregate[td, {5, "Minute"}]

The default function applied to the partitioned temporal data is mean.


This can be visualised:


DateListPlot[{td["Path"], answ["Path"]}, Joined -> {False, True}]

A good post is here.

functions - Get leading series expansion term?

Given a function f[x] , I would like to have a function leadingSeries that returns just the leading term in the series around x=0 . For example: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x)] x and leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x^3)/4)/(4 + x)] -(1/(16 x^3)) Is there such a function in Mathematica? Or maybe one can implement it efficiently? EDIT I finally went with the following implementation, based on Carl Woll 's answer: lds[ex_,x_]:=( (ex/.x->(x+O[x]^2))/.SeriesData[U_,Z_,L_List,Mi_,Ma_,De_]:>SeriesData[U,Z,{L[[1]]},Mi,Mi+1,De]//Quiet//Normal) The advantage is, that this one also properly works with functions whose leading term is a constant: lds[Exp[x],x] 1 Answer Update 1 Updated to eliminate SeriesData and to not return additional terms Perhaps you could use: leadingSeries[expr_, x_] := Normal[expr /. x->(x+O[x]^2) /. a_List :> Take[a, 1]] Then for your examples: leadingSeries[(1/x + 2)/(4 + 1/x^2 + x), x] leadingSeries[Exp[x], x] leadingSeries[(1/x + 2 + (1 - 1/x...

How to thread a list

I have data in format data = {{a1, a2}, {b1, b2}, {c1, c2}, {d1, d2}} Tableform: I want to thread it to : tdata = {{{a1, b1}, {a2, b2}}, {{a1, c1}, {a2, c2}}, {{a1, d1}, {a2, d2}}} Tableform: And I would like to do better then pseudofunction[n_] := Transpose[{data2[[1]], data2[[n]]}]; SetAttributes[pseudofunction, Listable]; Range[2, 4] // pseudofunction Here is my benchmark data, where data3 is normal sample of real data. data3 = Drop[ExcelWorkBook[[Column1 ;; Column4]], None, 1]; data2 = {a #, b #, c #, d #} & /@ Range[1, 10^5]; data = RandomReal[{0, 1}, {10^6, 4}]; Here is my benchmark code kptnw[list_] := Transpose[{Table[First@#, {Length@# - 1}], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list kptnw2[list_] := Transpose[{ConstantArray[First@#, Length@# - 1], Rest@#}, {3, 1, 2}] &@list OleksandrR[list_] := Flatten[Outer[List, List@First[list], Rest[list], 1], {{2}, {1, 4}}] paradox2[list_] := Partition[Riffle[list[[1]], #], 2] & /@ Drop[list, 1] RM[list_] := FoldList[Transpose[{First@li...

front end - keyboard shortcut to invoke Insert new matrix

I frequently need to type in some matrices, and the menu command Insert > Table/Matrix > New... allows matrices with lines drawn between columns and rows, which is very helpful. I would like to make a keyboard shortcut for it, but cannot find the relevant frontend token command (4209405) for it. Since the FullForm[] and InputForm[] of matrices with lines drawn between rows and columns is the same as those without lines, it's hard to do this via 3rd party system-wide text expanders (e.g. autohotkey or atext on mac). How does one assign a keyboard shortcut for the menu item Insert > Table/Matrix > New... , preferably using only mathematica? Thanks! Answer In the MenuSetup.tr (for linux located in the $InstallationDirectory/SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/X/ directory), I changed the line MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog"] to read MenuItem["&New...", "CreateGridBoxDialog", MenuKey["m", Modifiers-...
