    Abstract: The present technology relates to a control apparatus, a control method, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and a program, by which disaggregation of determining power consumption or the like of each of a plurality of appliances in a house or the like can be rapidly performed.A control apparatus such as an agent operates an appliance, recognizes an operation state of the appliance, and sends an appliance label indicating the appliance and an operation state label indicating the operation state of the appliance. An information processing apparatus such as a disaggregation apparatus acquires, from the control apparatus, the appliance label and the operation state label. In addition, the information processing apparatus acquires possibility information resulting from disaggregation of separating current consumption of the appliances. The possibility information indicates a possibility that current consumption indicated by the pattern information is being consumed in the appliance. The information processing apparatus determines, on the basis of the possibility information, pattern information indicating current consumption in a current operation state of the appliance, and performs labeling of associating the appliance label and the operation state label with the pattern information. The present technology is applicable to disaggregation of separating current consumption of appliances, for example.
