Capabilities

• IIR1D, IIR2D, and IIR3D Keras layers.
• Trainable feedforward and feedback coefficients.
• Batched multichannel TensorFlow tensors.
• Frequency-response plotting utility.

Minimal Example

import tensorflow as tf
from IIRD import IIR1D, IIR2D, IIR3D

x1 = tf.random.normal([1, 64, 1])
y1 = IIR1D(Delays=2, filters=4)(x1)

x2 = tf.random.normal([1, 32, 32, 1])
y2 = IIR2D(Delays=2, filters=4)(x2)

x3 = tf.random.normal([1, 16, 16, 16, 1])
y3 = IIR3D(Delays=1, filters=2)(x3)

print(y1.shape, y2.shape, y3.shape)

Module Commands
