Multiply values across each column by weight in another data.frame in R

I have two data.frames: df and weights (code below).

df looks like this:

    id             a           b           d           EE           f

How can I multiply the values in each of the columns by the corresponding weights in the weights data.frame?

Expected result:

You can try the base R code below

df[-1] <- df[-1] * weights[names(df)[-1], "V1"][col(df[-1])]

which gives

> df
              id          a          b          d EE         f

With tidyverse, we can loop across the columns, get the corresponding column name (cur_column()), use that to subset the 'weight's data by specifying the row/column, names and multiply

library(dplyr)
df %>%
    mutate(across(where(is.numeric), ~ . * weights[cur_column(), 'V1']))
              id          a          b          d EE         f
1           this  0.7494769 -0.1743717   5.293633 NA  4.175490
2             is  0.9081165  2.7259681   9.884781 NA -8.807325
3             an -0.1399082  0.5559418  -4.374990 NA -3.922983
4        example -0.5804764  0.7803247 -10.545803 NA  3.467420
5     data.frame  0.7755359 -1.1257980 -10.848448 NA  3.161471

Using lapply. Should be much faster than matching and sweeping.

df[-1] <- lapply(names(df)[-1], \(x) df[, x]*weights[x, ])
#               id          a          b          d EE         f
# 1           this  0.7494769 -0.1743717   5.293633 NA  4.175490
# 2             is  0.9081165  2.7259681   9.884781 NA -8.807325
# 3             an -0.1399082  0.5559418  -4.374990 NA -3.922983
# 4        example -0.5804764  0.7803247 -10.545803 NA  3.467420

Here is an alternative solution:

  1. Create column of rownames called Names in weights
  2. match column names from df with column Names of weights dataframe
  3. multiply with the corresponding V1 based on the numeric index by replicating the weights$V1
  4. Finally cbind to get id in df, which was removed by df[-1] for calculation purposes.
library(tibble)
# rownames to column
weights <- weights %>% 
  rownames_to_column(var = "Names")

df_result <- df[-1]*weights$V1[match(names(df[-1]), weights$Names)][col(df[-1])]
df_result <- cbind(id=df$id, df_result)
df_result

Output:

id          a          b          d EE         f
1           this  0.7494769 -0.1743717   5.293633 NA  4.175490

You can use sweep and match -

df[-1] <- sweep(df[-1],2, weights$V1[match(names(df[-1]),rownames(weights))],`*`)

df
#              id          a          b          d EE         f
#1           this  0.7494769 -0.1743717   5.293633 NA  4.175490
#2             is  0.9081165  2.7259681   9.884781 NA -8.807325
#3             an -0.1399082  0.5559418  -4.374990 NA -3.922983
#4        example -0.5804764  0.7803247 -10.545803 NA  3.467420
#5     data.frame  0.7755359 -1.1257980 -10.848448 NA  3.161471
#6            for -2.3269836  1.2253498  12.256612 NA  5.404699
