Weights

Also called: model weights, weight, the weights, weights file, released weights

The numbers inside a model that it learned during training. They decide what the model outputs for a given input. When a model's weights are released, anyone can download the file of those numbers and run the model.

For example: A lab publishes the weights of a model. A developer downloads the file and runs the model on a company server.
