R getting the minimum value for each row in a matr

问题:

I have a matrix like so:

Only in reality it is hundreds or thousands of values.

What I need to do is return the minimum value for each row, along with the row/col name.

So for row 1 in the example, "BAC", the minimum is 0.92 for BAC/CSCO, so I need to return something like:

BAC/CSCO 0.92

And then repeat this for each row in the matrix.

Assistance is greatly appreciated. I think apply is the trick, but I can't quite get the right combination.

回答1:

X <- matrix(runif(20), nrow=4)
rownames(X) <- paste0("foo", seq(nrow(X)))
colnames(X) <- paste0("bar", seq(ncol(X)))

result <- t(sapply(seq(nrow(X)), function(i) {
  j <- which.min(X[i,])
  c(paste(rownames(X)[i], colnames(X)[j], sep='/'), X[i,j])
}))

print(X)
print(result)

will give you:

          bar1      bar2       bar3       bar4      bar5
foo1 0.2085419 0.6290522 0.12730378 0.17775105 0.3239684
foo2 0.8061464 0.7948392 0.09330563 0.06698921 0.5557932
foo3 0.1790950 0.7788139 0.35787944 0.39117325 0.2578457
foo4 0.9099254 0.4048508 0.54791272 0.38674301 0.3272156

and

     [,1]        [,2]                
[1,] "foo1/bar3" "0.127303782384843" 
[2,] "foo2/bar4" "0.0669892099685967"
[3,] "foo3/bar1" "0.179094966035336" 
[4,] "foo4/bar5" "0.327215566998348"

Or here with apply()

#CREATE THE DATA
df<-data.frame(matrix(data=round(x=rnorm(100,10,1),digits=3),nrow=10),
           row.names=c("A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J"))
colnames(df)<-c("AD","BD","CD","DD","ED","FD","GD","HD","ID","JD")

#RUN THROUGH THE DF
mins<-apply(df,2,function(x)return(array(which.min(x))))
mins<-data.frame(col=names(mins),row=mins)
df$mins<-apply(mins,1,FUN=function(x)return(paste(x["col"],
                                     rownames(df[as.numeric(x["row"]),]),
                                     df[as.numeric(x["row"]),x["col"]],
                                     sep="/")))
