Both tests are based on symbolic analysis, specifically on symbolic correlation integral, in order to be robust to potential unknown nonlinearities. The first test is developed for a scenario in which each considered time series is independent and therefore the interest is to ascertain if two internally independent time series share a relationship of an unknown form. This is especially relevant as the test is nuisance parameter free, as proved in the paper. The second proposed statistic tests for independence among variables, allowing these time series to exhibit within-dependence. Monte Carlo experiments are conducted to show the empirical properties of the tests. %K Estadística e Investigación Operativa %K Matemática Aplicada %K Dependence %K Permutation entropy %K Symbolic correlation integral %K 12 Matemáticas %K 1209 Estadística %~ GOEDOC, SUB GOETTINGEN
