🚀 Multi-Agent Document Translation App

This PR implements a sophisticated document translation system that preserves layout and visual integrity using Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) and A2A protocol.

🎯 Problem Solved

Standard document translation tools often fail with visually complex documents (technical manuals, marketing brochures, academic papers with diagrams). They extract text, translate it, and try to reflow it into the document, which:

  • Breaks the original layout
  • Misplaces captions and annotations
  • Destroys visual integrity
  • Loses formatting and styling

🏗️ Architecture

4-Agent System Design:

1. Orchestrator Agent 🎭

  • Manages overall workflow and coordinates other agents
  • Handles language auto-detection
  • Manages job lifecycle and error handling
  • Assembles final translated documents

2. Conversion Agent 📄➡️🖼️

  • Converts documents (PDF, PPTX, DOCX) to high-resolution page images
  • Ensures optimal resolution for accurate OCR
  • Uploads images to Google Cloud Storage

3. Image Translation Agent 🔤🌍

  • Performs OCR using Google Cloud Vision API
  • Extracts text with precise bounding boxes
  • Creates clean images by masking original text
  • Translates text using Google Cloud Translation API
  • Re-renders translated text preserving layout and style

4. Validation Agent ✅📊

  • Semantic validation through back-translation
  • Layout consistency checks using SSIM
  • Text completeness verification
  • Quality scoring and issue reporting

🌟 Key Features

  • Layout Preservation: Maintains original document layout with high fidelity
  • Multi-Format Support: PDF, PPTX, DOCX document formats
  • High-Quality OCR: Google Cloud Vision API for accurate text extraction
  • Semantic Validation: Back-translation for quality assurance
  • Visual Consistency: SSIM-based layout comparison
  • Scalable Architecture: Async multi-agent system
  • RESTful API: FastAPI web interface
  • Quality Metrics: Comprehensive validation and scoring

🔧 Technical Implementation

Google Cloud Integration:

  • Cloud Vision API for OCR
  • Cloud Translation API for text translation
  • Cloud Storage for document and image management

Quality Assurance:

  • Layout consistency scoring
  • Structural similarity (SSIM) analysis
  • Semantic consistency via back-translation
  • Text completeness verification
  • Overall quality scoring with configurable thresholds

Error Handling:

  • Retry logic with exponential backoff
  • Comprehensive error reporting
  • Job status tracking
  • Graceful failure handling

🚀 Usage

Start the application:

python multi_agent_translation_app/main.py

API Endpoints:

  • POST /upload - Upload documents
  • POST /translate - Start translation
  • GET /job/{job_id} - Check job status
  • GET /jobs - List all jobs
  • GET /languages - Supported languages

Example:

# Upload and translate a document
response = requests.post('/translate', json={
    'document_path': 'gs://bucket/document.pdf',
    'target_language': 'es',
    'source_language': 'auto'
})

🧪 Testing

  • Comprehensive test suite with pytest
  • Mock-based testing for external services
  • Unit tests for all agent components
  • Integration test examples

📊 Quality Metrics

The system provides detailed quality metrics:

  • Layout Consistency Score: Visual layout preservation
  • Structural Similarity Score: SSIM-based comparison
  • Semantic Consistency Score: Back-translation accuracy
  • Text Completeness Score: Translation completeness
  • Overall Quality Score: Weighted average of all metrics

🔮 Future Enhancements

  • Support for additional document formats
  • Advanced font matching and styling
  • Vision Language Model integration
  • Real-time processing updates
  • Batch processing capabilities

📚 Documentation

  • Complete README with setup instructions
  • API documentation
  • Configuration guide
  • Example usage scripts
  • Architecture diagrams

This implementation follows the exact design specifications provided and creates a production-ready multi-agent document translation system that preserves layout integrity while providing high-quality translations.

Reviewer's Guide

This PR introduces a full multi‐agent document translation system built on Google’s ADK and A2A protocol. It defines a BaseAgent abstraction, then implements Conversion, ImageTranslation, and Validation agents with end-to-end async workflows orchestrated by an OrchestratorAgent. A FastAPI front-end wires everything together, backed by a GCSHelper utility, comprehensive configuration, documentation, usage examples, and targeted tests.
