Applied MLSystems & Experiments

Exploring how explicit constraints and evaluation metrics can improve AI system reliability. Built and tested through real-world pipelines.

What Is Implemented Today

Smart-Trends Pipeline

Ingestion pipeline processing 5000+ articles daily with LLM-based enrichment, source attribution tracking, and structured evaluation outputs.

PostgreSQL + Vector Storage

Backend storage layer using PostgreSQL with pgvector for semantic retrieval and structured data management.

Constraint-Based Evaluation

Prototype evaluation method testing how explicit constraints (source attribution, factual grounding, uncertainty expression) affect output quality.

Limitations

  • *This is an early-stage personal project, not a validated evaluation framework
  • *No formal benchmarking or peer-reviewed results yet
  • *Experimental and evolving system -- results are indicative, not definitive
  • *Solo project with limited external validation

Engineering Focus

  • Real-world constraints: latency, cost, reliability
  • Pipeline-based evaluation instead of static theory
  • Emphasis on measurable outputs over conceptual claims
  • Built and tested through the Smart-Trends pipeline
