Pre-trained models about ali

[DmitryUlyanov]

@IshmaelBelghazi @vdumoulin I am curious what can be the reason not to provide pretrained models? The code works perfectly well and I really do not see a single reason to force people who want to compare to your work (and cite) spend time on installing an unusual framework and waiting for a day while the code runs.

@DmitryUlyanov Rest assured, we are not intentionally withholding trained models. This is simply an oversight on our part.

I 100% agree that providing trained models would be the more user-friendly thing to do; unfortunately the only trained model files we have lying around internally are from an older, pre-open-sourced version of the code and are not compatible with the current version of the code, which means I would also have to re-train the models just like you.

With the NIPS deadline coming I won't have time to do so until at least next week, but in the meantime if you happen to have trained models using the open-source version of the code and would be willing to contribute back we would make sure to credit you for the effort. :)
