## Model zoo

### TensorFlow Lite models
These are the TensorFlow Lite models that could be implemented in apps and things:
* [MobileNet](https://github.com/tensorflow/models/blob/master/research/slim/nets/mobilenet/README.md) - Pretrained MobileNet v2 and v3 models.
* TensorFlow Lite models
* [TensorFlow Lite models](https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/models) - With official Android and iOS examples.
* [Pretrained models](https://www.tensorflow.org/lite/guide/hosted_models) - Quantized and floating point variants.
* [TensorFlow Hub](https://tfhub.dev/) - Set "Model format = TFLite" to find TensorFlow Lite models.

## Ideas and Inspiration
* [E2E TFLite Tutorials](https://github.com/ml-gde/e2e-tflite-tutorials) - Checkout this repo for sample app ideas and seeking help for your tutorial projects. Once a project gets completed, the links of the TensorFlow Lite model(s), sample code and tutorial will be added to this awesome list.
