Shrnutí:This paper proposes the use of neural networks tor the building of a proxy of poverty incidence in Ecuadorian urban areas, reproducing, with an important goodness to fit, the cffects ot macroeconomic policies in the short run, according to the data captured by the Surveys of Urban Employment, Underemployment and Unemployment. Although recognizing the importance of structural factors, the estimation confirms the testable predictions derived from the theoretical model. Tha<e poredictions say that exchange rate, wage and monctary policies, in that order, would have a decisive influence in poverty?s short run fluctuations. As a methodological contribution, this exercise shows the interesting possibilities that neural networks offer for estimation and modelization, even when, as in this case, we could have small sample problems.
