我喜欢夹而不喜欢掉。以下将夹在第2和98分频。

df_list = list(df)
minPercentile = 0.02
maxPercentile = 0.98

for _ in range(numCols):
    df[df_list[_]] = df[df_list[_]].clip((df[df_list[_]].quantile(minPercentile)),(df[df_list[_]].quantile(maxPercentile)))

由于我还没有看到处理数值和非数值属性的答案，这里有一个补充答案。

您可能只希望删除数值属性上的异常值(类别变量几乎不可能是异常值)。

函数定义

我扩展了@tanemaki的建议，当非数值属性也存在时处理数据:

from scipy import stats

def drop_numerical_outliers(df, z_thresh=3):
    # Constrains will contain `True` or `False` depending on if it is a value below the threshold.
    constrains = df.select_dtypes(include=[np.number]) \
        .apply(lambda x: np.abs(stats.zscore(x)) < z_thresh, reduce=False) \
        .all(axis=1)
    # Drop (inplace) values set to be rejected
    df.drop(df.index[~constrains], inplace=True)

使用

drop_numerical_outliers(df)

例子

想象一个数据集df，其中包含一些关于房屋的值:小巷、土地轮廓、销售价格……例:数据文档

首先，你想要在散点图上可视化数据(z-score Thresh=3):

# Plot data before dropping those greater than z-score 3. 
# The scatterAreaVsPrice function's definition has been removed for readability's sake.
scatterAreaVsPrice(df)

# Drop the outliers on every attributes
drop_numerical_outliers(train_df)

# Plot the result. All outliers were dropped. Note that the red points are not
# the same outliers from the first plot, but the new computed outliers based on the new data-frame.
scatterAreaVsPrice(train_df)

下面是一个包含数据和2组的完整示例:

进口:

from StringIO import StringIO
import pandas as pd
#pandas config
pd.set_option('display.max_rows', 20)

有2个组的数据示例:G1:Group 1。G2:第二组:

TESTDATA = StringIO("""G1;G2;Value
1;A;1.6
1;A;5.1
1;A;7.1
1;A;8.1

1;B;21.1
1;B;22.1
1;B;24.1
1;B;30.6

2;A;40.6
2;A;51.1
2;A;52.1
2;A;60.6

2;B;80.1
2;B;70.6
2;B;90.6
2;B;85.1
""")

读取文本数据到pandas数据框架:

df = pd.read_csv(TESTDATA, sep=";")

使用标准偏差定义离群值

stds = 1.0
outliers = df[['G1', 'G2', 'Value']].groupby(['G1','G2']).transform(
           lambda group: (group - group.mean()).abs().div(group.std())) > stds

定义过滤后的数据值和异常值:

dfv = df[outliers.Value == False]
dfo = df[outliers.Value == True]

打印结果:

print '\n'*5, 'All values with decimal 1 are non-outliers. In the other hand, all values with 6 in the decimal are.'
print '\nDef DATA:\n%s\n\nFiltred Values with %s stds:\n%s\n\nOutliers:\n%s' %(df, stds, dfv, dfo)

像在numpy.array中那样使用布尔索引

df = pd.DataFrame({'Data':np.random.normal(size=200)})
# example dataset of normally distributed data. 

df[np.abs(df.Data-df.Data.mean()) <= (3*df.Data.std())]
# keep only the ones that are within +3 to -3 standard deviations in the column 'Data'.

df[~(np.abs(df.Data-df.Data.mean()) > (3*df.Data.std()))]
# or if you prefer the other way around

对于一个系列，它是类似的:

S = pd.Series(np.random.normal(size=200))
S[~((S-S.mean()).abs() > 3*S.std())]

scipy。Stats有方法trim1()和trimboth()，根据排名和被删除值的引入百分比，在单行中删除异常值。

另一种选择是转换数据，以减轻异常值的影响。你可以通过winsorize你的数据来做到这一点。

import pandas as pd
from scipy.stats import mstats
%matplotlib inline

test_data = pd.Series(range(30))
test_data.plot()

# Truncate values to the 5th and 95th percentiles
transformed_test_data = pd.Series(mstats.winsorize(test_data, limits=[0.05, 0.05])) 
transformed_test_data.plot()
