'How can I download a pre-trained model from Tensorflow's Object Detection Model Zoo?
I am attempting to train an object detection model using Tensorflow's Object Detection API 2 and Tensorflow 2.3.0. I have largely been using this article as a resource in preparing the data and training the model.
Most articles which use the Object Detection API download a pre-trained model from the Tensorflow model zoo prior to fine-tuning.
The Tensorflow Model Zoo is a set of links on a Github page set up by the Object Detection team. When I click one such link (using Google Chrome), a new tab opens briefly as if a download is starting, then immediately closes and a download does not occur. Hyperlinks to other models I have found in articles also have not worked.
To anyone who has worked with fine-tuning using the Object Detection API: What method did you use to download a pre-trained model? Did the model zoo links work? If not, what resource did you use instead?
Any help is much appreciated.

In Google Chrome, you can copy the link of the model from Readme file and then paste that into another tab. The download will start automatically.
