Description

Description

I want to save the entire NCF model and use it without requiring the original model building code to run. How can I do that? The example in the deep dive notebook only shows how to save the model for further training which is not what I am looking for. Appreciate any reponses.

Research direction
Investigate how to save the NCF model for inference by reviewing the model class definition and any existing export functionality in the recommenders library. Look for methods like save(), export(), or serialization utilities in the codebase and documentation.
