Abstract

Este trabajo tiene por objetivo determinar si existe convergencia en la calidad de vida de las comunas y de los corregimientos del municipio de Medellín para el período 2004-2011. Para tal efecto, se realizaron análisis no paramétricos de estimación de funciones de Kernel estocásticas. Además, se utilizaron cadenas de Markov para la construcción de matrices de probabilidades de transición de Markov clásicas y espaciales, con lo cual se concluyó que existe convergencia en la calidad de vida medida por el indicador de calidad de vida. Así mismo, se incluyó un análisis específico por componentes del indicador con el fin de señalar los aspectos diferenciadores de cada comuna o corregimiento. Finalmente, se contrastó lo encontrado con las matrices espaciales, mediante la construcción de la matriz de probabilidades de transición del Moran local, donde se infirió que existe una autocorrelación espacial positiva en la calidad de vida de las unidades espaciales y sus respectivos vecinos.
