The paper proposes a new strategy for merging layers in deep neural networks, enabling depth compression without requiring an analytical solution for convolutions with padding and without increasing kernel size. This approach addresses limitations of previous methods that struggled with padded convolutions and larger kernels, and it is validated across various architectures and datasets with measured inference speed-ups on embedded platforms.
