Kurzfassung The goal of Load Disaggregation (or Non-intrusive Load Monitoring) is to infer the energy consumption of individual appliances from their aggregated consumption. This facilitates energy savings and efficient energy management, especially in the industrial sector.

However, previous research showed that Load Disaggregation underperforms in the industrial setting, despite all the available domain knowledge about the industrial processes.

The objective of this thesis was to improve load disaggregation algorithms by incorporating domain knowledge in an industrial setting. First, we identified and formalized several domain knowledge types that exist in the industry. Then, we proposed various ways to incorporate them into the Load Disaggregation algorithms, including Theory-Guided Ensembling, Theory-Guided Postprocessing, and Theory-Guided Architecture. Finally, we implemented and evaluated the proposed methods.
