在How to keep index when using pandas merge中提出了类似的问题,但它不适用于MultiIndexes,即
a = DataFrame(np.array([1,2,3,4,1,2,3,3]).reshape((4,2)), columns=['col1','to_merge_on'], index=['a','b','a','b'])
id = pd.MultiIndex.from_arrays([[1,1,2,2],['a','b','a','b']], names =['id1','id2'])
a.index = id
In [207]: a
Out[207]:
col1 to_merge_on
id1 id2
1 a 1 2
b 3 4
2 a 1 2
b 3 4
b=DataFrame(data={"col2": [1,2,3], 'to_merge_on' : [1,3,5]})
In [209]: b
Out[209]:
col2 to_merge_on
0 1 1
1 2 3
2 3 5
a.reset_index().merge(b, how="left").set_index('index')
In [208]: a.reset_index().merge(b, how="left").set_index('index')

如何在保留左数据帧中的MultiIndex的同时进行合并?
答案 0 :(得分:3)
临时解决方案:
In [255]: a = a.reset_index()
In [256]: a
Out[256]:
id1 id2 col1 to_merge_on
0 1 a 1 2
1 1 b 3 4
2 2 a 1 2
3 2 b 3 4
In [271]: c = pd.merge(a, b, how="left")
In [272]: c
Out[272]:
id1 id2 col1 to_merge_on col2
0 1 a 1 2 NaN
1 2 a 1 2 NaN
2 2 b 3 3 2
3 1 b 3 4 NaN
In [273]: c = c.set_index(['id1','id2'])
In [274]: c
Out[274]:
col1 to_merge_on col2
id1 id2
1 a 1 2 NaN
2 a 1 2 NaN
b 3 3 2
1 b 3 4 NaN
