A code base for system identification with Jax.

• Implements training of neural state-space models as described e.g. in https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.12928. Initial state handled either with:
  • ZERO initialization -> see train_state_space.py
  • FF initialization (aka SUBNET) -> see train_state_space_subnet.py
• Borrows from pytorch-ident for data loaders and metrics.
• Much faster than PyTorch implemetation, see experiments in dev/pytorch_comparison. Reason: PyTorch currently lacks a native scan operation and/or an effective way to compile custom RNNs.
• Simple interface based on flax transformations. Lower-level implementations in dev/manual_scan_batch.
• New: experimental implementation of dynoNet with direct back-propagation through the recurrence steps (no specialized formulas/derivation)
• New: experimental implementation of LRU. Implementation borrows heavily from https://github.com/NicolasZucchet/minimal-LRU
