From the abstract:

> Sharing the trained DL models has become a trend that is ubiquitous in various fields.

Apart from the Model Zoo[1], are there any other sites for sharing serialized models?

[1] https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/wiki/Model-Zoo

it's not very organized for sure. but in research, barely anyone I know trains models from scratch just to use them afterwards. In pytorch and tensorflow, you'd not even have to go to a model zoo page to use the most common architectures, the library will just load it on demand into a folder in ~. So yes, using and sharing models is ubiquitous from what I can tell.

Yes, I used `load_data` and friends and it is certainly convenient. I was just curious about a kind of open source market place for models, where you could find niche models that people train in their spare time.

TensorFlow recently announced TensorFlow Hub (https://www.tensorflow.org/hub/), which I think is similar.
