I have a pandas dataframe called ranks with my clusters and their key metrics. I rank them them using rank()
however there are two specific clusters which I want ranked differently to the others.
ranks = pd.DataFrame(data={'Cluster': ['0', '1', '2',
'3', '4', '5','6', '7', '8', '9'],
'No. Customers': [145118,
2,
1236,
219847,
9837,
64865,
3855,
219549,
34171,
3924120],
'Ave. Recency': [39.0197,
47.0,
15.9716,
41.9736,
23.9330,
24.8281,
26.5647,
17.7493,
23.5205,
24.7933],
'Ave. Frequency': [1.7264,
19.0,
24.9101,
3.0682,
3.2735,
1.8599,
3.9304,
3.3356,
9.1703,
1.1684],
'Ave. Monetary': [14971.85,
237270.00,
126992.79,
17701.64,
172642.35,
13159.21,
54333.56,
17570.67,
42136.68,
4754.76]})
ranks['Ave. Spend'] = ranks['Ave. Monetary']/ranks['Ave. Frequency']
Cluster No. Customers| Ave. Recency| Ave. Frequency| Ave. Monetary| Ave. Spend|
0 0 145118 39.0197 1.7264 14,971.85 8,672.07
1 1 2 47.0 19.0 237,270.00 12,487.89
2 2 1236 15.9716 24.9101 126,992.79 5,098.02
3 3 219847 41.9736 3.0682 17,701.64 5,769.23
4 4 9837 23.9330 3.2735 172,642.35 52,738.42
5 5 64865 24.8281 1.8599 13,159.21 7,075.19
6 6 3855 26.5647 3.9304 54,333.56 13,823.64
7 7 219549 17.7493 3.3356 17,570.67 5,267.52
8 8 34171 23.5205 9.1703 42,136.68 4,594.89
9 9 3924120 24.7933 1.1684 4,754.76 4,069.21
I then apply the rank()
method like this:
ranks['r_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Recency'].rank()
ranks['f_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Frequency'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks['m_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Monetary'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks['s_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Spend'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks['overall'] = ranks.apply(lambda row: row.r_rank + row.f_rank + row.m_rank + row.s_rank, axis=1)
ranks['overall_rank'] = ranks['overall'].rank(method='first')
Which gives me this:
Cluster No. Customers|Ave. Recency|Ave. Frequency|Ave. Monetary|Ave. Spend|r_rank|f_rank|m_rank|s_rank|overall|overall_rank
0 0 145118 39.0197 1.7264 14,971.85 8,672.07 8 9 8 4 29 9
1 1 2 47.0 19.0 237,270.00 12,487.89 10 2 1 3 16 3
2 2 1236 15.9716 24.9101 126,992.79 5,098.02 1 1 3 8 13 1
3 3 219847 41.9736 3.0682 17,701.64 5,769.23 9 7 6 6 28 7
4 4 9837 23.9330 3.2735 172,642.35 52,738.42 4 6 2 1 13 2
5 5 64865 24.8281 1.8599 13,159.21 7,075.19 6 8 9 5 28 8
6 6 3855 26.5647 3.9304 54,333.56 13,823.64 7 4 4 2 17 4
7 7 219549 17.7493 3.3356 17,570.67 5,267.52 2 5 7 7 21 6
8 8 34171 23.5205 9.1703 42,136.68 4,594.89 3 3 5 9 20 5
9 9 3924120 24.7933 1.1684 4,754.76 4,069.21 5 10 10 10 35 10
This does what it's suppose to do, however the cluster with the highest Ave. Spend
needs to be ranked 1 at all times and the cluster with the highest Ave. Recency
needs to be ranked last at all times.
So I modified the code above to look like this:
if(ranks['s_rank'].min() == 1):
ranks['overall_rank_2'] = 1
elif(ranks['r_rank'].max() == len(ranks)):
ranks['overall_rank_2'] = len(ranks)
else:
ranks_2 = ranks.drop(ranks.index[[ranks[ranks['s_rank'] == ranks['s_rank'].min()].index[0],ranks[ranks['r_rank'] == ranks['r_rank'].max()].index[0]]])
ranks_2['r_rank'] = ranks_2['Ave. Recency'].rank()
ranks_2['f_rank'] = ranks_2['Ave. Frequency'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks_2['m_rank'] = ranks_2['Ave. Monetary'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks_2['s_rank'] = ranks_2['Ave. Spend'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks_2['overall'] = ranks.apply(lambda row: row.r_rank + row.f_rank + row.m_rank + row.s_rank, axis=1)
ranks['overall_rank_2'] = ranks_2['overall'].rank(method='first')
Then I get this
Cluster No. Customers|Ave. Recency|Ave. Frequency|Ave. Monetary|Ave. Spend|r_rank|f_rank|m_rank|s_rank|overall|overall_rank|overall_rank_2
0 0 145118 39.0197 1.7264 14,971.85 8,672.07 8 9 8 4 29 9 1
1 1 2 47.0 19.0 237,270.00 12,487.89 10 2 1 3 16 3 1

Please help me modify the above if statement or perhaps recommend a different approach altogether. This ofcourse needs to be as dynamic as possible.
So you want a custom ranking on your dataframe, where the cluster(/row) with the highest Ave. Spend
is always ranked 1, and the one with the highest Ave. Recency
always ranks last.
The solution is five lines. Notes:
DataFrame.drop()
, just use idxmax()
to get the index of both of the rows that will need special treatment, and store it, so you don't need a huge unwieldy logical filter expression in your drop
.ranks_2 = ranks.drop(...)
; just pass the result of the drop()
into a rank()
....sum(axis=1)
on your desired columns, no need to define a lambda, or save its output in the temp column 'overall
'.rank()
, which will give us values from 1..8, so we add 1 to offset the results of rank()
to be 2..9. (You can generalize this).Ave. Spend
, Ave. Recency
rows.Ave.
columns or else the four *_rank
columns.)Code: (see at bottom for boilerplate to read in your dataframe, next time please make your example MCVE, to help us help you)
# Compute raw ranks like you do
ranks['r_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Recency'].rank()
ranks['f_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Frequency'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks['m_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Monetary'].rank(ascending=False)
ranks['s_rank'] = ranks['Ave. Spend'].rank(ascending=False)
# Find the indices of both the highest AveSpend and AveRecency
ismax = ranks['Ave. Spend'].idxmax()
irmax = ranks['Ave. Recency'].idxmax()
# Get the overall ranking for every row other than these... add 1 to offset for excluding the max-AveSpend row:
ranks['overall_rank'] = 1 + ranks.drop(index = [ismax,irmax]) [['r_rank','f_rank','m_rank','s_rank']].sum(axis=1).rank(method='first')
# (Note: in .loc[], can't mix indices (ismax) with column-names)
ranks.loc[ ranks['Ave. Spend'].idxmax(), 'overall_rank' ] = 1
ranks.loc[ ranks['Ave. Recency'].idxmax(), 'overall_rank' ] = len(ranks)
And here's the boilerplate to ingest your data:
