Topology identification is a challenging problem in real-world sensor networks, especially when the available time series are partially observed due to faulty communication links or sensor failures. The problem becomes even more challenging when the sensor dependencies are nonlinear and nonstationary. This paper proposes a kernel-based online framework using random feature approximation to jointly estimate nonlinear causal dependencies and missing data from partial observations of streaming graph-connected time series. Exploiting the fact that real-world networks often exhibit sparse topologies, we propose a group lasso-based optimization framework for topology identification, which is solved online using alternating minimization techniques. The ability of the algorithm is illustrated using several numerical experiments conducted using both synthetic and real data.}, year = {2022}, journal = {30th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO)}, publisher = {IEEE}, url = {https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9909681}, doi = {10.23919/EUSIPCO55093.2022.9909681}, note = {This work is a joint collaboration between SimulaMet and University of Agder.
