Importing and loading Keras models and layers

There can be times when you want to import a model that is not available in the DL4J Model Zoo API. You might have created your own model in Keras/TensorFlow, or you might be using a pre-trained model from Keras/TensorFlow. Either way, we can still load models from Keras/TensorFlow using the DL4J model import API.

Getting ready

This recipe assumes that you already have the Keras model (pre-trained/not pre-trained) set up and ready to be imported to DL4J. We will skip the details about how to save Keras models to disk as it is beyond the scope of this book. Usually, Keras models are stored in .h5 format, but that isn't a restriction as the model-import API can import from...
