我对这个问题有跟进。

我正在创建一个以现有 data.frame 的列名和特定行条目为条件的 data.frame。下面是我使用for 循环解决它的方法（感谢@Roland 的建议……真实数据违反了@eddi 回答的要求），但它一直在实际数据集（200x500,000+ rows.cols）上运行现在两个多小时...

（以下生成的 data.frames 与实际数据非常相似。）

set.seed(1)
a <- data.frame(year=c(1986:1990),
                events=round(runif(5,0,5),digits=2))
b <- data.frame(year=c(rep(1986:1990,each=2,length.out=40),1986:1990), 
                region=c(rep(c("x","y"),10),rep(c("y","z"),10),rep("y",5)),
                state=c(rep(c("NY","PA","NC","FL"),each=10),rep("AL",5)),
                events=round(runif(45,0,5),digits=2))
d <- matrix(rbinom(200,1,0.5),10,20, dimnames=list(c(1:10), rep(1986:1990,each=4)))
e <- data.frame(id=sprintf("%02d",1:10), as.data.frame(d), 
                region=c("x","y","x","z","z","y","y","z","y","y"), 
                state=c("PA","AL","NY","NC","NC","NC","FL","FL","AL","AL"))


 for (i in seq_len(nrow(d))) {
   for (j in seq_len(ncol(d))) {
     d[i,j] <- ifelse(d[i,j]==0,
                      a$events[a$year==colnames(d)[j]],
                      b$events[b$year==colnames(d)[j] &
                               b$state==e$state[i] &
                               b$region==e$region[i]])
   }
 }

有没有更好/更快的方法来做到这一点？

# set key for merging and merge with b and a

dt.result = data.table(a, key = 'year')[
               data.table(b, key = c('year', 'region', 'state'))[dt]]

# now we can compute the value we want
dt.result[, final.value := value * events.1 + (!value) * events]

# dcast back

一种更简单的方法（我认为 - 它不涉及熔化，dcasting和合并）如下：

首先，您的 a 和 b 数组应按年份（对于 a）和年份/州/地区（对于 b）进行索引：

at = a$events; names(at) = a$year

bt = tapply(b$events,list(b$year,b$state,b$region),function(x) min(x))
# note, I used min(x) in tapply just to be on the safe side, that the functions always returns a scalar

# we now create the result of the more complex case (lookup in b)
ids = cbind(colnames(d)[col(d)],
            as.character(e$state[row(d)]),
            as.character(e$region[row(d)])
           )
vals=bt[ids]; dim(vals)=dim(d)
# and compute your desired result with the ifelse
result = ifelse(d==0,at[colnames(d)[col(d)]],vals)
# and that's it!

这应该更快（避免嵌套循环），但我没有对此进行分析。让我们知道它对您的完整数据有何作用
