Topic: ✔ Agents.jl "no possible aggregation"


view this post on Zulip Lorenzo Gaifas (Jul 01 2022 at 17:50):

I have an agent based model from which I'm attempting to aggregate data. If each of my agents has an energy field, I can do this:

energy(a) = a.energy
adata = [(energy, mean)]
fig, = abmexploration(
    model;
    agent_step!,
    model_step!,
    adata,
)

and all works well. However, I would like to exclude some agents from the aggregation (it's a mixed agent model, and for some types the energy field should not even be there). To do so, I thought I could use NaN to my advantage:

energy(a) = a isa MyAgentType1 ? a.energy : NaN
nanmean(collection) = mean(filter(!isnan,  collection))
adata = [(energy, nanmean)]

However, this produces a rather cryptic error:

No possible aggregation for energy using nanmean

I didn't manage to find anything with google... and the nanmean method works as intended, if I call it myself. Suggestions?

I am clueless here but what about missing?

view this post on Zulip Lorenzo Gaifas (Jul 01 2022 at 18:00):

unfortunately no, because mean([1, missing]) is missing.

Found out how to solve the issue: use collect(collection) first, because whatever was being passed could not be filtered... gotta learn how to check types more easily :/
