Serializers

Serialization in NumPy NPZ format

NumPy serializers can be used in arbitrary environments that Chainer runs with. It consists of asymmetric serializer/deserializer due to the fact that numpy.savez does not support online serialization. Therefore, serialization requires two-step manipulation: first packing the objects into a flat dictionary, and then serializing it into npz format.
