I haven't modeled the curve yet. It appears that I should be able to
model it using an IIR. How would one go about designing a filter using
data on a response plot?

Well, if you've modeled the curve with an IIR, then that means that
the transfer function can be specified as a rational function in z
(i.e., a ratio of polynomials in z),
G(z) = N(z)/D(z).
The inverse filter is then the inverse of this rational transfer
function, i.e., the numerator polynomial becomes the denominator
polynomial and vice-versa,
H(z) = D(z)/N(z).
Then G(z)H(z) = 1.
However..., the resulting filter may not be causal and/or it may not
be stable. If the original function G(z) is minimum-phase, then the
inverse will be causal and stable.
I'm not sure where you're going with this or why you ask, so I'll stop
here.

Hello list,
I realize that this may be a very elementary problem, but I'm new to
DSP and would very much appreciate your help.
If you are given a frequency response and you know that:
1. the part of the curve you're interested in can be modeled using a
narrow bandpass IIR filter
2. you want to flatten that part of the curve
how would you design the inverse filter? Also, how would you achieve
the desired flat response?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
