Abstract

Aunque los algoritmos genéticos se diseñaron originalmente como método de optimización, también pueden ser utilizados, en el contexto económico, como herramienta predictiva de los cambios en la composición de una población, en términos de las características individuales de los agentes que la componen. En este documento, se desarrolla un algoritmo genético específico capaz de predecir los cambios en las características de los turistas que visitan el sur de Tenerife. Los resultados obtenidos sugieren la conveniencia de sustituir los tradicionales operadores de cruce y mutación por la acción de una adecuada matriz de transición. Esta matriz dirige la dinámica de transformación de la población en el sentido de que permite introducir consideraciones económicas que otorgan mayores probabilidades a ciertas transformaciones en las características de los turistas que visitan la Isla.
