Find duplicated rows (based on 2 columns) in Data Frame in R

I have a data frame in R which looks like:

| RIC    | Dat开发者_运维知识库e                | Open   |
|--------|---------------------|--------|
| S1A.PA | 2011-06-30 20:00:00 | 23.7   |
| ABC.PA | 2011-07-03 20:00:00 | 24.31  |
| EFG.PA | 2011-07-04 20:00:00 | 24.495 |
| S1A.PA | 2011-07-05 20:00:00 | 24.23  |

I want to know if there's any duplicates regarding to the combination of RIC and Date. Is there a function for that in R?


You can always try simply passing those first two columns to the function duplicated:

duplicated(dat[,1:2])

assuming your data frame is called dat. For more information, we can consult the help files for the duplicated function by typing ?duplicated at the console. This will provide the following sentences:

Determines which elements of a vector or data frame are duplicates of elements with smaller subscripts, and returns a logical vector indicating which elements (rows) are duplicates.

So duplicated returns a logical vector, which we can then use to extract a subset of dat:

ind <- duplicated(dat[,1:2])
dat[ind,]

or you can skip the separate assignment step and simply use:

dat[duplicated(dat[,1:2]),]


dplyr is so much nicer for this sort of thing:

library(dplyr)
yourDataFrame %>%
    distinct(RIC, Date, .keep_all = TRUE)

(the ".keep_all is optional. if not used, it will return only the deduped 2 columns. when used, it returns the deduped whole data frame)


Here's a dplyr option for tagging duplicates based on two (or more) columns. In this case ric and date:

df <- data_frame(ric = c('S1A.PA', 'ABC.PA', 'EFG.PA', 'S1A.PA', 'ABC.PA', 'EFG.PA'),
                 date = c('2011-06-30 20:00:00', '2011-07-03 20:00:00', '2011-07-04 20:00:00', '2011-07-05 20:00:00', '2011-07-03 20:00:00', '2011-07-04 20:00:00'),
                 open = c(23.7, 24.31, 24.495, 24.23, 24.31, 24.495))

df %>% 
  group_by(ric, date) %>% 
  mutate(dupe = n()>1)
# A tibble: 6 x 4
# Groups:   ric, date [4]
  ric    date                 open dupe 
  <chr>  <chr>               <dbl> <lgl>
1 S1A.PA 2011-06-30 20:00:00  23.7 FALSE
2 ABC.PA 2011-07-03 20:00:00  24.3 TRUE 
3 EFG.PA 2011-07-04 20:00:00  24.5 TRUE 
4 S1A.PA 2011-07-05 20:00:00  24.2 FALSE
5 ABC.PA 2011-07-03 20:00:00  24.3 TRUE 
6 EFG.PA 2011-07-04 20:00:00  24.5 TRUE 


Easy way to get the information you want is to use dplyr.

yourDF %>% 
  group_by(RIC, Date) %>% 
  mutate(num_dups = n(), 
         dup_id = row_number()) %>% 
  ungroup() %>% 
  mutate(is_duplicated = dup_id > 1)

Using this:

  • num_dups tells you how many times that particular combo is duplicated
  • dup_id tells you which duplicate number that particular row is (e.g. 1st, 2nd, or 3rd, etc)
  • is_duplicated gives you an easy condition you can filter on later to remove all the duplicate rows (e.g. filter(!is_duplicated)), though you could also use dup_id for this (e.g. filter(dup_id == 1))


If you want to remove duplicate records based on values of Columns Date and State in dataset data.frame:

#Indexes of the duplicate rows that will be removed: 
duplicate_indexes <- which(duplicated(dataset[c('Date', 'State')]),) 
duplicate_indexes 

#new_uniq will contain unique dataset without the duplicates. 
new_uniq <- dataset[!duplicated(dataset[c('Date', 'State')]),] 
View(new_uniq) 


I think what you're looking for is a way to return a data frame of the duplicated rows in the same format as your original data. There is probably a more elegant way to do this but this works:

dup <- data.frame(as.numeric(duplicated(df$var))) #creates df with binary var for duplicated rows
colnames(dup) <- c("dup") #renames column for simplicity
df2 <- cbind(df, dup) #bind to original df
df3 <- subset(df2, dup == 1) #subsets df using binary var for duplicated`


Found quite a masterful idea posted by Steve Lianouglou that helps solve this problem with the great advantage of indexing the repetitions:

If you generate a hash column concatenating both your columns for which you want to check duplicates, you can then use dplyr::n() together with seq to give an index to each duplicate occurrence as follows

dat %>% mutate(hash = str_c(RIC, Date)) %>%
  group_by(hash) %>% 
  mutate(duplication_id = seq(n()) %>%
 ungroup ()

Your column duplication_id tells you how many identical rows (same row values for both columns) are there in your table above the one indexed. I used this to remove duplicate Ids.
