Research Framework

Purpose: Research-driven development methodology for technical decisions

🔬 Research Process

When to Research

  • Complex technical decisions (architecture, algorithms, performance)
  • Error fixes requiring deep understanding
  • New feature implementation
  • Performance optimization

5-Step Research Method

1. Define Problem

  • Specific technical challenge
  • Success criteria and constraints
  • Current limitations

2. Literature Review (Brave Search MCP)

  • Academic papers and SOTA research
  • Industry benchmarks and case studies
  • Android-specific solutions

3. Technical Analysis (Context7 MCP)

  • Android API capabilities
  • Hardware constraints
  • Integration complexity

4. Experimental Design

  • Prototype plan
  • Benchmarking approach
  • Success metrics

5. Implementation & Validation

  • Small proof of concept
  • Performance measurement
  • Documentation of findings

🎯 Research Areas

ML Strategy

  • Speech recognition models (Whisper variants, SOTA alternatives)
  • Voice activity detection algorithms
  • Model optimization (quantization, pruning)
  • On-device ML performance

Audio Processing

  • FFmpeg Android integration
  • Real-time audio pipelines
  • Noise reduction algorithms
  • Buffer management and threading

Performance

  • Battery optimization
  • Memory management
  • CPU usage profiling
  • Thermal management

Architecture

  • Audio storage and compression
  • Privacy-first design
  • Data lifecycle management
  • Modular architecture patterns

🔧 Implementation Strategy

Research-to-Code Pipeline

  1. Research (Brave Search MCP + Context7 MCP)
  2. Document findings with sources
  3. Prototype small proof of concept
  4. Measure performance vs. research predictions
  5. Integrate incrementally with tests
  6. Validate against research targets

Source Quality Priority

  1. Academic papers (peer-reviewed, recent)
  2. Industry documentation (Google, Android docs)
  3. Open source implementations (active projects)
  4. Community discussions (Stack Overflow, forums)
