摘要

This study examines the potential and limitations of Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) in reconstructing Qing imperial interiors, with Juanqinzhai as a case study. A high-fidelity SketchUp(SU) reference model and historical archives served as the ground truth for both geometric and semantic validation. Over 200 images were generated via function-oriented prompts using Midjourney v6 and Stable Diffusion XL. Results show systematic errors (6.5–40.6%), including exaggerated spatial depth, disproportionate partitions, and undersized ceiling elements, revealing a bias toward visual spectacle rather than structural fidelity. Semantic analysis further identified ornamental exaggeration and stylistic hybridization, reflecting cross-cultural biases embedded in training data. A three-stage critical generation workflow is proposed, combining AIGC’s creative diversity with expert correction and Historic Building Information Modeling (HBIM) integration. The findings underscore the risks of uncritical use of generative tools while demonstrating their value as auxiliary methods for culturally sensitive digital heritage reconstruction.
