Abstract
In recent years the game of poker has created a high interest on researchers from the artificial intelligence area. Unlike board games, poker is an incomplete information game becoming a very complex game for a virtual agent. The main objective of this work is to create a data model enabling to apply data mining techniques to obtain a poker player model (pre-flop stage). To do that we used a database from a professional poker player where the data is stored in text files. The work used CRISP-DM, performing its stages. As ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) tool Talend was used and for running the data mining techniques Weka was used. As a final result, a player model was achieved with a very good ROC curve. This result, enable us to conclude that the approach is adequate for creating complete poker player models.

Abstract
This paper deals with the radial distribution system reconfiguration problem in a multi-objective scope, aiming to determine the optimal configuration by means of minimization of active power losses and several reliability indices. A novel way to calculate these indices under a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) approach is provided. Afterwards, an efficient implementation of the e-constraint method using lexicographic optimization is employed to solve the multi-objective optimization problem, which is formulated as a MILP problem. After the Pareto Efficient solution set is generated, a multi-attribute decision making procedure is used, namely the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) method, so that a decision maker (DM) can express preferences over the solutions and facilitate the final selection.

Sustainable energy system of el hierro island

Abstract
Isolated islanded energy systems do not have any connection to continental grids and nor do have an easy access to conventional energy sources. In order to face this specific challenge, El Hierro project on the small El Hierro island, Canary Islands, was put in practice. This project embodies the first major Megawatt-level energy project by linking energy storage systems with wind power generation using water storage delivered by the pumping system between two artificial lakes. In this paper, we analyse the project and discuss the first results after the inauguration.
