Selected projects

LLM/VLM Prompt Optimization and Evaluation Framework

Built a reusable framework for versioned prompts, datasets, automated evaluation, experiment comparison, and error analysis. Optimized image-relevance classification with GEPA and validated gains through online A/B testing.

Large-Scale Urban Gaussian Splatting Pipeline

Built an end-to-end 3D reconstruction pipeline for scenes over 1 TB and tens of thousands of images, including COLMAP, training, fine-tuning, block merging, monitoring, and GPU orchestration.

Retail Demand Forecasting System

Developed a hybrid ARIMA and optimization-based forecasting system for about 15 retail chains, reducing modified MAPE by 15 percentage points while supporting manual delivery-calendar constraints.

Achievements

VLM classifier surpassed generalist human annotators

Yandex · 2026

Optimized a multimodal prompt with GEPA for image-relevance classification and outperformed generalist annotators against expert labels on a 2,000-query validation set.

Urban 3D reconstruction reached demo-ready quality

TomTom · 2025

The resulting urban scene was presented to Moscow city leadership and contributed to securing follow-on project funding.
