Importing models into Watson Machine Learning

If you have a machine learning model or neural network that was trained outside of IBM Watson Machine Learning, you can import that model into your Watson Machine Learning service.

Here, to import a trained model means:

  1. Store the trained model in your Watson Machine Learning repository
  2. [Optional] Deploy the stored model in your Watson Machine Learning service
