Keywords in English
Artificial neural networks
Conditional density estimation
Conditional independence testing
Machine learning
Two-sample comparison
Abstract in English
Given the vast amount of data available nowadays and the rapid increase of computational processing power, the field of machine learning and the so called algorithmic modeling have seen a recent surge in its popularity and applicability. One of the tools which has attracted great popularity is artificial neural networks due, to among other things, their versatility, ability to capture complex relations and computational scalability. In this work, we therefore apply such machine learning tools into three important problems of Statistics: two-sample comparison, conditional independence testing and conditional density estimation.
Title in Portuguese

Aprendizado de máquina
Comparação de populações
Estimação de densidade condicional
Redes neurais artificiais
Teste de independência condicional
Abstract in Portuguese
Dada a grande quantidade de dados disponíveis nos dias de hoje e o rápido aumento da capacidade de processamento computacional, o campo de aprendizado de máquina e a assim chamada modelagem algorítmica tem visto um grande surto de popularidade e aplicabilidade. Uma das ferramentas que atraíram grande popularidade são as redes neurais artificiais dada, entre outras coisas, sua versatilidade, habilidade de capturar relações complexas e sua escalabilidade computacional. Assim sendo, neste trabalho aplicamos estas ferramentas de aprendizado de máquina em três problemas importantes da Estatística: comparação de populações, teste de independência condicional e estimação de densidades condicionais.
