How to count sequences of ones in a logical vector [duplicate]

Answer 1

with C++ through Rcpp

library(Rcpp)

cppFunction('NumericVector seqOfLogical(LogicalVector lv) {
  size_t n = lv.size();
  NumericVector res(n);
  int foundCounter = 0;
  for (size_t i = 0; i < n; i++) {
    if (lv[i] == 1) {
      foundCounter++;
    } else {
      foundCounter = 0;
    }
    res[i] = foundCounter;
  }
  return res;
}')

seqOfLogical(x)

# [1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4

Benchmarks

library(microbenchmark)

set.seed(1)
x <- sample(c(T,F), size = 1e6, replace = T)

microbenchmark(
    symbolix = { symbolix(x) }, 
    thelatemail1 = { thelatemail1(x) },
    thelatemail2 = { thelatemail2(x) },
    wen = { wen(x) },
    maurits = { maurits(x) },
    #mhammer = { mhammer(x) },   ## this errors
    times = 5
)

functions

symbolix <- function(x) {
    seqOfLogical(x)
}

thelatemail1 <- function(x) {
    r <- rle(x)
    x[x] <- sequence(r$l[r$v])
    return(x)
}

thelatemail2 <- function(x) {
    x[x] <- sequence(with(rle(x), lengths[values]))
    return(x)
}

maurits <- function(x) {
    unlist(Map(function(l, v) if (!isTRUE(v)) rep(0, l) else 1:l, rle(x)$lengths, rle(x)$values))
}

wen <- function(A) {
    B=data.table::rleid(A)
    B=ave(B,B,FUN = seq_along)
    B[!A]=0
    B
}

mhammer <- function(x) {
    x_counts <- x
    for(i in seq_along(x)) {
      if(x[i] == 1) { x_counts[i] <- x_counts[i] + x_counts[i-1] }
    }
    return(x_counts)
}

Answer 2

Another rle option:

r <- rle(x)
x[x] <- sequence(r$l[r$v])
#[1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4

Or without saving r:

x[x] <- sequence(with(rle(x), lengths[values]))

Answer 3

Here is a solution using base R's rle with Map

x <- as.logical(c(0,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1))
unlist(Map(function(l, v) if (!isTRUE(v)) rep(0, l) else 1:l, rle(x)$lengths, rle(x)$values))
# [1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4

or using purrr::pmap

library(purrr);
unlist(pmap(unclass(rle(x)), 
    function(lengths, values) if (!isTRUE(values)) rep(0, lengths) else 1:lengths))
#[1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4

Answer 4

I recommend runner package and function streak_run which calculates consecutive occurences. Possible also calculating on sliding windows (eg. last 5 observations), more in github documentation

x <- as.logical(c(0,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1))

streak <- streak_run(x)
streak[x == 0] <- 0

print(streak)
# [1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4

Answer 5

x <- c(0,0,1,1,1,0,1,1,0,0,0,1,1,1,1)
x_counts <- x
for(i in seq_along(x)) {
  if(x[i] == 1) { x_counts[i] <- x_counts[i] + x_counts[i-1] }
}
x_counts

Answer 6

slightly different from Wen's, I came up with:

library(data.table)
ave(v,rleid(v),FUN=function(x) x *seq_along(x))
# [1] 0 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 0 0 0 1 2 3 4
