Huanghuang DENG, Aoran SUN, Zhan MENG, et al. Intelligent interaction system for art image creation: challenges, methodologies, and future prospects[J]. ENGINEERING Information Technology & Electronic Engineering, 2026, 27(10): 1-28. DOI: 10.1631/ENG.ITEE.2026.0124.
Graphic visual art is undergoing a profound transformation driven by generative artificial intelligence (AI). This transformation extends beyond technological innovation
reshaping the paradigms of artistic image creation. This paper examines human-centered interactive systems for artistic image creation
aiming to bridge the gap between technology-oriented and art-oriented research. We identify three core challenges in interactive generative art creation: controllability
integrity
and creativity
and analyze in depth the underlying trade-offs among them. Building on this analysis
we systematically review the evolution of generative models
approaches to integrating artistic knowledge
and the emergence of collaborative agentic AI systems. Looking ahead
we emphasize the need to develop human–AI collaborative frameworks that offer greater controllability
preserve human creative agency
and ensure regulatory compliance
while exploring a wide range of potential applications. This study proposes a unified analytical framework that connects AI technologies
human–AI interaction processes
and the integration and innovation of artistic image creation. It further outlines a task-oriented roadmap to guide future research and the development of collaborative systems for artistic image creation.
