LLaMA2, for example, is limited to 4096 tokens, and earlier extension methods stopped around 128k. Going further is hard for three reasons: unseen position indices destabilize training, very long training texts are scarce and expensive to use, and… 2. **[Mitigating Position Bias in Transformers via Layer-Specific Positional Embedding Scaling](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2026-mitigating-position-bias-transformers-layer/)** *(2026)* Long-context LLMs that use RoPE tend to concentrate attention on the start and end of the input. As a result, they underuse content in the middle, a problem known as "lost-in-the-middle." Earlier fixes such as Attention Buckets, MoICE and Ms-PoE mix several RoPE bases or scales. However, they need repeated forward… ## Co-authors here 12 of 16 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Changze Lv](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/changze-lv/) - [Chengruidong Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/chengruidong-zhang/) - [Fan Yang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/fan-yang/) - [Li Lyna Zhang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/li-lyna-zhang/) - [Mao Yang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/mao-yang/) - [Muling Wu](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/muling-wu/) - [Ning Shang](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/ning-shang/) - [Qi Qian](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/qi-qian/) - [Shizheng Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/shizheng-li/) - [Tianlong Li](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tianlong-li/) - [Tianyuan Shi](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/tianyuan-shi/) - [Xiaoqing Zheng](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/xiaoqing-zheng/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/): [Findings of the Association for Computational Linguistics 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/findings/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 127 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [29 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/yiran-ding/cited-by/).
