Lithuanian Personal Numbers

Introduction

The function clean_lt_asmens() cleans a column containing Lithuanian personal number (Asmens koda) strings, and standardizes them in a given format. The function validate_lt_asmens() validates either a single Asmens koda strings, a column of Asmens koda strings or a DataFrame of Asmens koda strings, returning True if the value is valid, and False otherwise.

Asmens koda strings can be converted to the following formats via the output_format parameter:

  • compact: only number strings without any seperators or whitespace, like “33309240064”

  • standard: Asmens koda strings with proper whitespace in the proper places. Note that in the case of Asmens koda, the compact format is the same as the standard one.

  • birthdate: split the date parts from the number and return the birth date, like “1933-09-24”.

Invalid parsing is handled with the errors parameter:

  • coerce (default): invalid parsing will be set to NaN

  • ignore: invalid parsing will return the input

  • raise: invalid parsing will raise an exception

The following sections demonstrate the functionality of clean_lt_asmens() and validate_lt_asmens().

An example dataset containing Asmens koda strings

[1]:
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
df = pd.DataFrame(
    {
        "asmens": [
            '33309240064',
            '33309240164',
            '7542011030',
            '7552A10004',
            '8019010008',
            "hello",
            np.nan,
            "NULL",
        ],
        "address": [
            "123 Pine Ave.",
            "main st",

            "(staples center) 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles",
            "hello",
        ]
    }
)

1. Default clean_lt_asmens

By default, clean_lt_asmens will clean asmens strings and output them in the standard format with proper separators.

[2]:
from dataprep.clean import clean_lt_asmens
clean_lt_asmens(df, column = "asmens")
[2]:
asmens address asmens_clean
0 33309240064 123 Pine Ave. 33309240064
1 33309240164 main st NaN
2 7542011030 1234 west main heights 57033 NaN
3 7552A10004 apt 1 789 s maple rd manhattan NaN
4 8019010008 robie house, 789 north main street NaN
5 hello 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles, CA 90015 NaN
6 NaN (staples center) 1111 S Figueroa St, Los Angeles NaN
7 NULL hello NaN

4. validate_lt_asmens()

validate_lt_asmens() returns True when the input is a valid Asmens koda. Otherwise it returns False.

The input of validate_lt_asmens() can be a string, a Pandas DataSeries, a Dask DataSeries, a Pandas DataFrame and a dask DataFrame.

When the input is a string, a Pandas DataSeries or a Dask DataSeries, user doesn’t need to specify a column name to be validated.

When the input is a Pandas DataFrame or a dask DataFrame, user can both specify or not specify a column name to be validated. If user specify the column name, validate_lt_asmens() only returns the validation result for the specified column. If user doesn’t specify the column name, validate_lt_asmens() returns the validation result for the whole DataFrame.
