Release GeoDrive model checkpoints on Hugging Face #5
Description
Hi @antonioo-c 🤗
I'm Niels and work as part of the open-source team at Hugging Face. I discovered your excellent work, GeoDrive, through Hugging Face's daily papers as yours got featured: https://huggingface.co/papers/2505.22421.
The paper page lets people discuss your paper and find related artifacts (like your models), and you can also claim the paper as yours (which will show up on your public profile at HF), and add GitHub and project page URLs.
I noticed in your GitHub repository's TODO list that you plan to "Release inference code" and "Release model checkpoints". That's fantastic news!
When your GeoDrive model checkpoints are ready, would you be interested in hosting them on https://huggingface.co/models?
Hosting on Hugging Face will give them more visibility and enable better discoverability. We can add relevant tags in the model cards so that people can easily find and use the models, and link them directly to your paper page.
If you're interested, here's a guide for uploading models: https://huggingface.co/docs/hub/models-uploading. If it's a custom PyTorch model, you can use the PyTorchModelHubMixin class, which adds from_pretrained and push_to_hub functionality. Alternatively, people can use hf_hub_download to access files directly.
After uploading, we can link your models to the paper page (read here) so people can discover your work.
You could also build a demo for your model on Spaces to showcase its capabilities. We can even provide you with a ZeroGPU grant, giving you access to A100 GPUs for free.
Please let me know if you're interested or need any guidance when you're ready to release!
Kind regards,
Niels
