This paper presents a comparative study of two distinct approaches, XGBoost and Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM), for forecasting transmitted heat energy in District Heating Systems (DHS). The objective is to explore scenarios in which conventional ML algorithms demonstrate better performance over deep learning networks in time series forecasting and the associated benefits in terms of computational cost and environmental impact.
The paper investigates how model initialization affects federated short‑term load forecasting (STLF) when client data are heterogeneous. It introduces two strategies: a global pretrained initialization using auxiliary public load data to reduce client drift, and a local sequential initialization (SLIAvg) that lets clients start from progressively adapted models each round. Experiments on real smart‑meter data show these methods improve convergence and lower forecasting errors while remaining compatible with existing federated learning frameworks.
