An Ensemble Model of Attention-Enhanced N-BEATS and XGBoost for District Heating Load Forecasting

Accurate heat load forecasting is essential for the efficiency of District Heating Systems (DHS). Still, it is challenged by the need to model long-term temporal dependencies and nonlinear relationships with weather and other factors. This study proposes a hybrid deep learning framework combining an...
