11. Reflection

This past weekend I gave my presentation for my project, which was the culmination of both my academics at BISV and this project thus far! So now, in this blog post I will be reflecting on the whole senior project process.

I definitely learned a lot from this project and dove deeper about ideas I hadn’t explored before. My favorite part of the project was the experimentation even when the results were disappointing. Nonetheless, the project was far from smooth-sailing; I did run into many roadblocks. Earlier on I had difficulty making my methodology more concrete, and I ran into all sorts of bugs while coding. For future improvements, the first step would be to improve the accuracy checker model (like switching to an LLM-as-a-Judge instead). Then I’d try to iterate on more models and datasets and see where to go from there.
