Distributed Diffusion Adaptation Over Graph Signals

Most works on graph signal processing assume static graph signals, which is a limitation even in comparison to traditional DSP techniques where signals are modeled as sequences that evolve over time. For broader applicability, it is necessary to develop techniques that are able to process dynamic or streaming data. Many earlier works on adaptive networks have addressed problems related to this challenge by developing effective strategies that are particularly well-suited to data streaming into graphs. We are thus faced with two paradigms: one where signals are modeled as static and sitting on the graph nodes, and another where signals are modeled as dynamic and streaming into the graph nodes. The objective of this work is to blend these concepts and propose diffusion strategies for adaptively learning from streaming graph signals
