Randomized YaRN is a training method that enhances length generalization for large language models by combining YaRN-based positional extrapolation with randomized positional encoding and a length curriculum. During training on short-context data, tokens receive YaRN positional encodings sampled from a larger position range, exposing the model to out-of-distribution positional representations. Evaluated on BABILong, Multi-Round Coreference Resolution, and LongBench v2, Randomized YaRN consistently improves reasoning performance on context lengths from 16K to 128K, outperforming standard fine‑tuning especially at far out‑of‑distribution lengths.

Understanding and reasoning over long contexts has become a key requirement for deploying large language models (LLMs) in realistic applications. Although recent LLMs support increasingly long context windows, they often fail to use relevant evidence that is already present in the input, revealing a gap between context access and effective context utilization.
