Abstract

A inclusão financeira é importante para reduzir a pobreza e proporcionar um crescimento econômico inclusivo, principalmente comparando grupos com grande desigualdade social. Este artigo utilizou a pesquisa Global Financial Inclusion (Global Findex) da World Bank Group para comparar técnicas de aprendizado de máquina na classificação de homens e mulheres quanto ao uso de serviços financeiros. Para isso, utilizou-se os classificadores Árvore de decisão, -vizinhos mais próximos, Naïve Bayes e Floresta randômica, e avaliadas as métricas de acurácia, precisão, sensibilidade, f1-score e área sob a curva Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC). Verificou-se que todas as técnicas (exceto por Naïve Bayes) obtiveram uma acurácia próxima a 70%, sensibilidade próxima a 88% e precisão acima dos 72% na maioria dos parâmetros investigados. Quanto à área sob a curva ROC, a Floresta randômica atingiu 0,77, superando as outras técnicas nesta avaliação.
