list manipulation - Select rows from table by keys


I am looking for a way to iteratively select all sublists with the same ID (my 1st column, residual columns are AbsoluteTime entries). First, I obtained the list of unique IDs with Union. Then I want to use this list for the selection task. I assume that it must work with Sequence and ReplaceAll, but could not make it work. Here's what I have so far:


ticketList = Union[dataList[[1 ;;, 1]]];
tempList = Select[dataList, #1[[1]] == x &] /. x ->  Sequence[ticketList];

My ultimate goal is to build up a TemporalData array with all items which each belong to the same ID.


My data is has dimensions n x m. The ticket list has dimension t. The resulting table should have dimensions t x i x m, where i is the cardinality of items with the same ID, and the i's sum to n. I assumed, that I can then map TemporalData on every t-th item in order to build the temporal list.



I searched the site but didn't find a previous question that seem to address my problem. Maybe I misunderstood the use cases of similiar questions.



Answer



Here's an attempt to address your question based on the sort of data I imagine you have in mind. First, some data. Note: the integers are understood to be ID's.


times = RandomReal[{0, 100}, {20, 5}];
ids = RandomInteger[4, 20];
data = Transpose[Prepend[Transpose[times], ids]]


{{1, 95.2049, 98.1609, 35.1946, 32.636, 81.2383}, {3, 92.8072, 36.0249, 68.3793, 54.1311, 95.1051}, {3, 4.26078, 47.9919, 31.627, 53.0064, 96.8995}, {4, 18.2792, 94.4752, 5.66575, 5.62435, 35.8945}, {4, 67.4149, 68.1577, 25.281, 17.8322, 15.3123}, {2, 77.6343, 35.3486, 81.3541, 73.6091, 51.4884}, {0, 28.5346, 29.2705, 78.9446, 32.2112, 7.05296}, {4, 91.9405, 79.4176, 75.6947, 72.1069, 5.94247}, {2, 11.0662, 24.4381, 79.5328, 20.2195, 79.4703}, {0, 61.6779, 73.8532, 61.5861, 7.79641, 38.3836}, {4, 52.3064, 95.9954, 62.3701, 34.7654, 99.8931}, {2, 92.6636, 57.8744, 23.4167, 76.3724, 44.8631}, {2, 73.7149, 84.6716, 36.1234, 89.5432, 39.8183}, {3, 50.4444, 7.98911, 69.4092, 96.3191, 79.6566}, {3, 41.2261, 58.5009, 57.7989, 58.9187, 8.87187}, {4, 53.5552, 11.3278, 8.24034, 67.3065, 19.4648}, {2, 19.9501, 30.5649, 73.9395, 13.3722, 36.5546}, {3, 96.5631, 19.1948, 23.226, 92.8776, 64.4002}, {0, 65.9084, 10.2902, 8.83754, 93.0831, 36.464}, {1, 18.2795, 12.4673, 42.0253, 39.8816, 50.8252}}




Now to gather the records that have the same id:

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...

mathematical optimization - Minimizing using indices, error: Part::pkspec1: The expression cannot be used as a part specification

I want to use Minimize where the variables to minimize are indices pointing into an array. Here a MWE that hopefully shows what my problem is. vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@ { Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; Minimize[{Total@((vec1[[#]] - vec2[[u[#]]])^2 & /@ Range[1, 3]), cons}, vars, Integers] The error I get: Part::pkspec1: The expression u[1] cannot be used as a part specification. >> Answer Ok, it seems that one can get around Mathematica trying to evaluate vec2[[u[1]]] too early by using the function Indexed[vec2,u[1]] . The working MWE would then look like the following: vars = u@# & /@ Range[3]; cons = Flatten@{ Table[(u[j] != #) & /@ vars[[j + 1 ;; -1]], {j, 1, 3 - 1}], 1 vec1 = {1, 2, 3}; vec2 = {1, 2, 3}; NMinimize[ {Total@((vec1[[#]] - Indexed[vec2, u[#]])^2 & /@ R...

How to remap graph properties?

Graph objects support both custom properties, which do not have special meanings, and standard properties, which may be used by some functions. When importing from formats such as GraphML, we usually get a result with custom properties. What is the simplest way to remap one property to another, e.g. to remap a custom property to a standard one so it can be used with various functions? Example: Let's get Zachary's karate club network with edge weights and vertex names from here: http://nexus.igraph.org/api/dataset_info?id=1&format=html g = Import[ "http://nexus.igraph.org/api/dataset?id=1&format=GraphML", {"ZIP", "karate.GraphML"}] I can remap "name" to VertexLabels and "weights" to EdgeWeight like this: sp[prop_][g_] := SetProperty[g, prop] g2 = g // sp[EdgeWeight -> (PropertyValue[{g, #}, "weight"] & /@ EdgeList[g])] // sp[VertexLabels -> (# -> PropertyValue[{g, #}, "name"]...
