Over five months, Wade developed and enhanced data mapping and analysis workflows for the Vis4Sense/student-projects repository, focusing on automation, maintainability, and user experience. He built modular Python backends for RAG-based mapping, integrated LLM-driven prompt comparison, and implemented TF-IDF retrieval with cosine similarity to improve data grounding. Using Pandas and Gradio, Wade delivered interactive Excel data analysis interfaces, enabling streamlined data extraction, filtering, and export. He also managed release assets to accelerate deployment and improve reproducibility. The work demonstrated depth in backend development, data processing, and UI/UX design, resulting in scalable, well-documented solutions for qualitative data analysis and mapping.

December 2024 monthly summary for Vis4Sense/student-projects: Delivered a major RAG data mapping overhaul with modularization, significantly improving maintainability and future extensibility. Implemented a two-file modular architecture (RAG.py and StructuredOutputs.py) and introduced TF-IDF retrieval with cosine similarity to fetch semantically similar descriptions, enabling more accurate data grounding for responses. Deployed a two-step LLM process for generating structured outputs, enhancing consistency and accuracy of results. Updated the project README to reflect changes, improving onboarding and knowledge transfer. The work was completed within the ongoing development cadence, with a weekly progress commit (c9930326571ca6a8a84bce4ddbe43b46c7af9ec0). Impact at a glance: better retrieval quality, more maintainable codebase, clearer documentation, and a foundation for scalable RAG-based workflows.
