About the Book
This book provides the proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality (AIVR 2024). The focus is interdisciplinary in nature, and includes research on all aspects of artificial intelligence and virtual reality, from fundamental development to the applied system. It constitutes a great honour and pleasure for us to publish the selected excellent works and recent research trends of scholars and graduate students from the 8th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Virtual Reality (AIVR 2024) (Fukuoka, Japan, July 19-21, 2024), hosted and organized by Fukuoka Institute of Technology in conjunction with other four universities and Beijing Huaxia Rongzhi Blockchain Technology Institute. The topics of AIVR 2024 cover system techniques, performance, and implementation; content creation and modelling; cognitive aspects, perception, user behaviour; AI technologies; interactions, interactive and responsive environments; AI/VR applications and case studies. These technologies have the potential to support AI and VR systems in many areas of production, management, business, healthcare, networks, intelligent control, traffic management, logistics, crisis response, human interfaces, etc.
