N2 - Linear structural equation models (SEMs) have been very successful in identifying the topology of complex graphs, such as those representing tactical, social and brain networks. The rising popularity of multilayer networks, presents the need for tools that are tailored to leverage the layered structure of the underlying network. To this end, a multilayer SEM is put forth, to infer causal relations between nodes belonging to multilayer networks. An efficient algorithm based on the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is developed, and preliminary tests on synthetic as well as real data demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
