π Phase 1 Implementation Plan - Research Features
Quick Wins: Build These First (2-3 days)
Priority 1: RAG Pipeline Visualization βββ
Why: Shows research credibility, transparency, visual appeal Effort: Medium Impact: High
Implementation Steps:
- Backend: Track RAG stages (
api/rag_tracker.py)
class RAGTracker:
def __init__(self):
self.stages = []
def track_query_encoding(self, query, embedding):
self.stages.append({
"stage": "encoding",
"query": query,
"embedding_preview": embedding[:10], # First 10 dims
"timestamp": time.time()
})
def track_retrieval(self, documents, scores):
self.stages.append({
"stage": "retrieval",
"num_docs": len(documents),
"top_scores": scores[:5],
"documents": [{"text": d[:100], "score": s}
for d, s in zip(documents[:5], scores[:5])]
})
def track_generation(self, context, response):
self.stages.append({
"stage": "generation",
"context_length": len(context),
"response_length": len(response),
"attribution": self.extract_citations(response)
})

Priority 2: Attention Visualization ββ
Why: Shows interpretability, looks impressive, educational Effort: Medium-High Impact: Very High (visually stunning)
Implementation:
- Mock attention data in demo mode
def generate_attention_heatmap(query: str, response: str):
"""Generate synthetic attention weights for demo."""
query_tokens = query.split()
response_tokens = response.split()[:20] # First 20 tokens
# Simulate attention: query tokens attend to relevant response tokens
attention = np.random.rand(len(query_tokens), len(response_tokens))
# Add some structure (diagonal-ish for realistic look)
for i in range(len(query_tokens)):
attention[i, i:i+3] *= 2 # Boost nearby tokens
attention = softmax(attention, axis=1)
return {
"query_tokens": query_tokens,
"response_tokens": response_tokens,
"attention_weights": attention.tolist()
}
- Interactive heatmap with Plotly or D3.js
function renderAttentionHeatmap(data) {
const trace = {
x: data.response_tokens,
y: data.query_tokens,
z: data.attention_weights,
type: 'heatmap',
colorscale: 'Viridis',
hoverongaps: false
};
const layout = {
title: 'Attention Pattern: Query β Response',
xaxis: { title: 'Response Tokens' },
yaxis: { title: 'Query Tokens' },
paper_bgcolor: '#1e1e1e',
plot_bgcolor: '#1e1e1e',
font: { color: '#d4d4d4' }
};
Plotly.newPlot('attention-heatmap', [trace], layout);
}
Priority 3: Paper Citation System βββ
Why: Academic credibility, research positioning Effort: Low Impact: High (perception)
Implementation:
- Paper database (
api/papers.py)
RESEARCH_PAPERS = {
"attention": {
"title": "Attention is All You Need",
"authors": "Vaswani et al.",
"year": 2017,
"venue": "NeurIPS",
"url": "https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03762",

# Add 15+ more papers...
}
def get_relevant_papers(feature: str) -> List[Dict]:
"""Return papers relevant to the current feature."""
feature_paper_map = {

"attention": ["attention", "transformers"],
"reasoning": ["tot", "cot", "self_consistency"],
# ...

Priority 4: Uncertainty Quantification ββ
Why: Shows sophistication, useful for users Effort: Low-Medium Impact: Medium-High
Implementation:
- Confidence estimation (demo mode)
def estimate_confidence(query: str, response: str, mode: str) -> Dict:
"""
Estimate confidence based on heuristics.
In production, use actual model logits.
"""
# Heuristics for demo
confidence_base = 0.7
# Boost confidence for technical mode (seems more certain)
if mode == "technical":
confidence_base += 0.1
# Lower confidence for vague queries
if len(query.split()) < 5:
confidence_base -= 0.15
# Add some noise for realism
confidence = confidence_base + np.random.uniform(-0.1, 0.1)
confidence = np.clip(confidence, 0.3, 0.95)
# Estimate epistemic vs aleatoric
epistemic = confidence * 0.6 # Model uncertainty
aleatoric = confidence * 0.4 # Data ambiguity
return {
"overall": round(confidence, 2),
"epistemic": round(epistemic, 2),
"aleatoric": round(aleatoric, 2),
"calibration_error": round(abs(confidence - 0.8), 3),
"interpretation": interpret_confidence(confidence)
}
def interpret_confidence(conf: float) -> str:
if conf > 0.85:
return "High confidence - well-established knowledge"
elif conf > 0.65:
return "Moderate confidence - generally accurate"
else:
return "Low confidence - consider verifying independently"

"papers": [...] # Relevant citations
}
}
