Abstract

La sociofísica es una novedosa rama interdisciplinaria de la física que aboga por el uso de métodos y conceptos de la física de sistemas complejos para el estudio de interacciones colectivas en sociedades y de los fenómenos sociales como propiedades emergentes de un conjunto de individuos. En este trabajo se muestran los resultados de utilizar el enfoque sociofísico para la predicción de procesos electorales, siguiendo los trabajos realizados por Serge Galam. Se realizan correcciones a la formula mágica propuesta por Galam, la cual presenta errores. Por otro lado, se desarrolló un sistema computacional basado en algoritmos genéticos para implementar la ecuación obtenida a partir de las correcciones de la formula mágica. Finalmente, se prueba el sistema con datos de elecciones delegacionales reales en el Distrito Federal de México de 2006 y 2009 para probar su eficiencia y se realiza una predicción para las elecciones del año 2012.
