Python Scipy spearman相关矩阵不匹配双数组相关也不匹配pandas.Data.Frame.corr()

Question

我正在计算矩阵的spearman相关性.我发现矩阵输入和双数组输入在使用时给出了不同的结果scipy.stats.spearmanr.结果也不同于pandas.Data.Frame.corr.

from scipy.stats import spearmanr # scipy 1.0.1
import pandas as pd # 0.22.0
import numpy as np
#Data 
X = pd.DataFrame({"A":[-0.4,1,12,78,84,26,0,0], "B":[-0.4,3.3,54,87,25,np.nan,0,1.2], "C":[np.nan,56,78,0,np.nan,143,11,np.nan], "D":[0,-9.3,23,72,np.nan,-2,-0.3,-0.4], "E":[78,np.nan,np.nan,0,-1,-11,1,323]})
matrix_rho_scipy = spearmanr(X,nan_policy='omit',axis=0)[0]
matrix_rho_pandas = X.corr('spearman')
print(matrix_rho_scipy == matrix_rho_pandas.values) # All False except diagonal
print(spearmanr(X['A'],X['B'],nan_policy='omit',axis=0)[0]) # 0.8839285714285714 from scipy 1.0.1
print(spearmanr(X['A'],X['B'],nan_policy='omit',axis=0)[0]) # 0.8829187134416477 from scipy 1.1.0
print(matrix_rho_scipy[0,1]) # 0.8263621207201486
print(matrix_rho_pandas.values[0,1]) # 0.8829187134416477

后来我发现熊猫的rho和R的rho一样.

X = data.frame(A=c(-0.4,1,12,78,84,26,0,0), 
  B=c(-0.4,3.3,54,87,25,NaN,0,1.2), C=c(NaN,56,78,0,NaN, 143,11,NaN), 
  D=c(0,-9.3,23,72,NaN,-2,-0.3,-0.4), E=c(78,NaN,NaN,0,-1,-11,1,323)) 
cor.test(X$A,X$B,method='spearman', exact = FALSE, na.action="na.omit") # 0.8829187 

但是,Pandas的corr不能用于大表(例如,这里和我的情况是16,000).

感谢Warren Weckesser的测试,我发现Scipy 1.1.0的两个数组结果(但不是1.0.1)与Pandas和R的结果相同.

如果您有任何建议或意见,请与我们联系.谢谢.

我使用Python:3.6.2(Anaconda); Mac OS:10.10.5.

当输入是数组并且给出了an 时，它似乎scipy.stats.spearmanr无法按预期处理值。下面的脚本比较了几种计算成对 Spearman 排序相关性的方法：nanaxis

import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from scipy.stats import spearmanr


x = np.array([[np.nan,    3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 5.1, 6.0, 9.2],
              [5.0,    np.nan, 4.1, 4.8, 4.9, 5.0, 4.1],
              [0.5,       4.0, 7.1, 3.8, 8.0, 5.1, 7.6]])

r = spearmanr(x, nan_policy='omit', axis=1)[0]
print("spearmanr, array:           %11.7f %11.7f %11.7f" % (r[0, 1], r[0, 2], r[1, 2]))

r01 = spearmanr(x[0], x[1], nan_policy='omit')[0]
r02 = spearmanr(x[0], x[2], nan_policy='omit')[0]
r12 = spearmanr(x[1], x[2], nan_policy='omit')[0]

print("spearmanr, individual:      %11.7f %11.7f %11.7f" % (r01, r02, r12))

df = pd.DataFrame(x.T)
c = df.corr('spearman')

print("Pandas df.corr('spearman'): %11.7f %11.7f %11.7f" % (c[0][1], c[0][2], c[1][2]))
print("R cor.test:                   0.2051957   0.4857143  -0.4707919")
print('  (method="spearman", continuity=FALSE)')

"""
# R code:
> x0 = c(NA, 3, 4, 5, 5.1, 6.0, 9.2)
> x1 = c(5.0, NA, 4.1, 4.8, 4.9, 5.0, 4.1)
> x2 = c(0.5, 4.0, 7.1, 3.8, 8.0, 5.1, 7.6)
> cor.test(x0, x1, method="spearman", continuity=FALSE)
> cor.test(x0, x2, method="spearman", continuity=FALSE)
> cor.test(x1, x2, method="spearman", continuity=FALSE)
"""

输出：

spearmanr, array:            -0.0727393  -0.0714286  -0.4728054
spearmanr, individual:        0.2051957   0.4857143  -0.4707919
Pandas df.corr('spearman'):   0.2051957   0.4857143  -0.4707919
R cor.test:                   0.2051957   0.4857143  -0.4707919
  (method="spearman", continuity=FALSE)

我的建议是不要scipy.stats.spearmanr在表单中使用spearmanr(x, nan_policy='omit', axis=<whatever>)。使用corr()Pandas DataFrame 的方法，或使用循环来使用 成对计算值spearmanr(x0, x1, nan_policy='omit')。
