+## Exporting a Selene-trained model to Kipoi
+We have provided an example of how to prepare a model for upload to [Kipoi's model zoo](http://kipoi.org/) using a model trained during case study 2. You can use [this example](https://github.com/FunctionLab/selene/tree/master/manuscript/case2/3_kipoi_export) as a starting point for preparing your own model for Kipoi. We have provided a script that can help to automate parts of the process.

+We are also working on an export function that will be built into Selene and accessible through the CLI.

 ## Hyperparameter optimization
 Hyperparameter optimization is the process of finding the set of hyperparameters that yields an optimal model against a predefined score (e.g. minimizing a loss function). 
 Hyperparameters are the variables that govern the training process (i.e. these parameters are constant during training, compared to model parameters which are optimized/"tuned" by the training process itself).
