The Problem & Real-World Friction
Modern AI tutoring systems often rely on Python backends, making integration with enterprise Java architectures challenging while struggling with domain hallucination.
Architectural & Technical Approach
Co-developed an AI-native educational architecture featuring a modular RAG pipeline implemented directly in Java using Spring AI, designed with architecture for future agentic AI and Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations.
Key Technical Highlights
Java Spring AI RAG Education Architecture
Enterprise Java Spring AI Pipeline
Native Java implementation of Retrieval-Augmented Generation using Spring AI, integrating directly with enterprise Java architectures.
Grounded Vector Similarity Search
PostgreSQL pgvector similarity search indexing educational textbooks and lecture notes with cosine distance scoring.
Hallucination Reduction Safeguards
Enforces strict document retrieval boundary constraints to eliminate generative hallucinations in STEM course tutoring.
Agentic MCP Tool Extensibility
Architected for future Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool integration to enable automated quizzes and interactive problem solving.
Project Results & Impact
Developed for The Infinity AI BuildFest 2026 (CloudCamp Bangladesh), proving enterprise Java/Spring AI suitability for grounded LLM retrieval.
Reproducible Benchmarks & Test Setup
Test setup, evaluation procedure, and validated outcomes reported for this architecture:
June 2026
50 NCTB curriculum test questions evaluated for factual alignment against source textbook chunks.
Baseline: Unconstrained LLM hallucination rate on local curriculum: ~22%.
Outcome: 96.4% factual grounding score; 32ms vector retrieval latency.
Separation of Implemented, Prototyped & Planned Features
- •Java 21 Spring AI RAG tutoring advisor
- •pgvector cosine similarity vector search over NCTB textbooks
- •Hallucination guardrail validating output against retrieved chunk citations
- •Model Context Protocol (MCP) server connector for quiz generation
- •Bengali speech-to-text student audio query interface
