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.
arXiv:2605. 22350v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Ensembles of neural networks typically outperform individual networks but incur large computational costs, whereas weight aggregation produces less costly, yet also less accurate, aggregate models.
Deep neural networks have witnessed remarkable advancements in recent years and have become integral to various applications. However, alongside these developments, training and deployment of neural network models on embedding and edge devices face significant challenges due to limited memory and computational resources.
arXiv:2606. 09885v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mixture-of-Experts large language models (LLMs) scale efficiently through sparse activation, yet their deployment is fundamentally constrained by the large static parameter footprint of experts.
