R(arules)将数据框转换为事务并删除 NA

Question

我有一组数据框。我的目的是将数据框转换为交易数据，以便使用 R 中的 Arules 包进行购物篮分析。我在网上做了一些关于将数据框转换为交易数据的研究，例如( How to prep transaction data into basket for arules )和( Transform csv into transactions for arules )，但我得到的结果是不同的。

输入(df)

structure(list(Transaction_ID = c("A001", "A002", "A003", "A004", "A005", "A006"), 
Fruits = c(NA, "Apple", "Orange", NA, "Pear", "Grape"), 
Vegetables = c(NA, NA, NA, "Potato", NA, "Yam"), 
Personal = c("ToothP", "ToothP", NA, "ToothB", "ToothB", NA), 
Drink = c("Coff", NA, "Coff", "Milk", "Milk", "Coff"), 
Other = c(NA, NA, NA, NA, "Promo", NA)), 
.Names = c("Transaction_ID", "Fruits", "Vegetables", "Personal", "Drink", "Other"), 
class = c("tbl_df", "tbl", "data.frame"), row.names = c(NA, -6L))

下面是我的数据框结构

Transaction_ID  Fruits  Vegetables  Personal  Drink  Other
      A001        NA        NA       ToothP   Coff    NA
      A002       Apple      NA       ToothP    NA     NA
      A003      Orange      NA         NA     Coff    NA
      A004        NA      Potato     ToothB   Milk    NA
      A005       Pear       NA       ToothB   Milk   Promo
      A006      Grape      Yam         NA     Coff    NA

每列的类

sapply(df, class)
Transaction_ID         Fruits     Vegetables       Personal          Drink          Other 
"character"    "character"    "character"    "character"    "character"    "character"

将数据帧转换为交易数据

data <- as(split(df[,"Fruits"], df[,"Vegetables"],df[,"Personal"], df[,"Drink"], df[,"Other"]), "transactions")
inspect(data)

我得到的结果

[1] {NA,NA,ToothP,Coff,NA}
[2] {Apple,NA,ToothP,NA,NA}
[3] {Orange,NA,NA,Coff,NA}
[4] {NA,Potato,ToothB,Milk,NA}
[5] {Pear,NA,ToothB,Milk,Promo}
[6] {Grape,Yam,NA,Coff,NA}

交易数据转换成功，但请问有什么方法可以去掉NA的元素吗？因为如果它们仍然保留在交易列表中，NA 会将其视为一个项目。

奥古斯塔里是对的。这是同时处理交易 ID 的完整代码。

library("arules")
library("dplyr")  ### for dbl_df
df <- structure(list(Transaction_ID = c("A001", "A002", "A003", "A004", "A005", "A006"), 
  Fruits = c(NA, "Apple", "Orange", NA, "Pear", "Grape"), 
  Vegetables = c(NA, NA, NA, "Potato", NA, "Yam"), 
  Personal = c("ToothP", "ToothP", NA, "ToothB", "ToothB", NA), 
  Drink = c("Coff", NA, "Coff", "Milk", "Milk", "Coff"), 
  Other = c(NA, NA, NA, NA, "Promo", NA)), 
  .Names = c("Transaction_ID", "Fruits", "Vegetables", "Personal", "Drink", "Other"), 
  class = c("tbl_df", "tbl", "data.frame"), row.names = c(NA, -6L))

### remove transaction IDs
tid <- as.character(df[["Transaction_ID"]])
df <- df[,-1]

### make all columns factors
for(i in 1:ncol(df)) df[[i]] <- as.factor(df[[i]])

trans <- as(df, "transactions")

### set transactionIDs
transactionInfo(trans)[["transactionID"]] <- tid

inspect(trans)

   items                                          transactionID
[1] {Personal=ToothP,Drink=Coff}                   A001         
[2] {Personal=ToothP}                              A002         
[3] {Drink=Coff}                                   A003         
[4] {Vegetables=Potato,Personal=ToothB,Drink=Milk} A004         
[5] {Personal=ToothB,Drink=Milk,Other=Promo}       A005         
[6] {Vegetables=Yam,Drink=Coff}                    A006
