Databricks环境下基于PySpark实现无人工干预的FORECAST.LINEAR线性预测批量计算需求

Hey there! Since you're new to PySpark and working in Databricks, let's walk through exactly how to automate that scenario value calculation—ditching the manual Excel steps entirely. I’ll break this down into actionable, Databricks-friendly steps based on your description:

First, let’s clarify: when you use Excel’s FORECAST.LINEAR with two interval points (like 1%/-200 and 5%/-150), it’s doing linear interpolation. The formula simplifies to:

scenario_value = Y1 + (expected_return - X1) * (Y2 - Y1)/(X2 - X1)

Where:

• X1/Y1 = Lower bound of the matched interval (e.g., 1%/-200)
• X2/Y2 = Upper bound of the matched interval (e.g.,5%/-150)
• expected_return = Your target rate (e.g.,3%)

First, load your dataset into Databricks. I’ll assume it’s stored as a Delta table (common in Databricks) or CSV—adjust the code to match your actual source:

# Load Scenario_Data (update format/path as needed)
scenario_df = spark.read.format("delta").table("Scenario_Data")
# For CSV: spark.read.csv("/path/to/Scenario_Data.csv", header=True, inferSchema=True)

# Clean percentage values (if stored as strings like "1%")
from pyspark.sql.functions import regexp_replace, col

scenario_df = scenario_df.withColumn(
    "return_rate", 
    regexp_replace(col("return_rate"), "%", "").cast("double") / 100
)

Note: If your data already uses pre-defined intervals (columns like lower_bound, upper_bound, y_lower, y_upper), skip the next interval-creation step and adjust filters later.

If your Scenario_Data lists individual return rates and their corresponding values (not pre-built intervals), we’ll first generate contiguous intervals using window functions:

from pyspark.sql.window import Window
from pyspark.sql.functions import lead

# Sort data by return rate to ensure correct interval order
sorted_scenario_df = scenario_df.orderBy("return_rate")

# Add next row's return rate and value to form intervals
window_spec = Window.orderBy("return_rate")
interval_df = sorted_scenario_df.withColumn(
    "next_return_rate", lead("return_rate").over(window_spec)
).withColumn(
    "next_corresponding_value", lead("corresponding_value").over(window_spec)
).filter(
    col("next_return_rate").isNotNull()  # Drop last row (no upper bound)
)

Let’s use your example expected return (3% = 0.03) to find the matching interval:

expected_return = 0.03  # 3% as a decimal

# Filter to get the interval that contains the expected return
matching_interval = interval_df.filter(
    (col("return_rate") <= expected_return) & (col("next_return_rate") >= expected_return)
).first()

# Extract the X/Y values from the matched interval
x1 = matching_interval["return_rate"]
y1 = matching_interval["corresponding_value"]
x2 = matching_interval["next_return_rate"]
y2 = matching_interval["next_corresponding_value"]

If using pre-built intervals, adjust the filter to check lower_bound <= expected_return <= upper_bound instead.

Now apply the linear interpolation formula to get your automated result:

# Compute the scenario value (matches Excel's FORECAST.LINEAR result)
scenario_value = y1 + (expected_return - x1) * (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
print(f"Scenario Value for 3% expected return: {scenario_value}")
# This will output -162.5, just like your manual Excel calculation!

If you need to calculate values for multiple expected returns at once, use a UDF to scale the logic:

from pyspark.sql.functions import udf, lit
from pyspark.sql.types import DoubleType

# Define a UDF to calculate scenario values for any input
def calculate_scenario(x1, y1, x2, y2, expected):
    return y1 + (expected - x1) * (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

calculate_udf = udf(calculate_scenario, DoubleType())

# Create a DataFrame of multiple expected returns
expected_returns_df = spark.createDataFrame([(0.03,), (0.02,), (0.06,)], ["expected_return"])

# Join with intervals and compute values for all returns
result_df = expected_returns_df.crossJoin(interval_df).filter(
    (col("return_rate") <= col("expected_return")) & (col("next_return_rate") >= col("expected_return"))
).withColumn(
    "scenario_value", 
    calculate_udf(col("return_rate"), col("corresponding_value"), col("next_return_rate"), col("next_corresponding_value"), col("expected_return"))
)

# View final results
result_df.select("expected_return", "scenario_value").show()

• Out-of-range returns: If your expected return is below the smallest or above the largest rate in Scenario_Data, add logic to either extrapolate using the first/last two points or flag the value (based on your business rules).
• Duplicate intervals: Ensure Scenario_Data has no overlapping intervals to avoid multiple matches for a single return rate.
