Chunking for Embeddings

Analyze fixed-size, recursive, and semantic document chunking.

Why This Matters

Poor chunking cuts sentences in half, causing vector databases to fail to retrieve relevant passages.

What You Will Learn

  • Implement character chunking
  • Setup recursive chunkers
  • Evaluate semantic splits

Mapped Foundation Project: Resume / JD Matcher

Semantic matching workspace that parses resumes, converts paragraphs into vector embeddings, and measures job description fits.

Architecture Preview

Pipeline mapping files uploads to text, calling embed endpoints, and plotting relative match score vectors.
