Human-centered Metaverse: Concepts, Methods, and Applications is a valuable resource in the understanding of the metaverse and the factors that influence human-AI interaction. It provides an up-to-date repository of theory, fundamentals, techniques, and diverse applications, and comprehensively addresses recent and rapid changes in the field of human-centered metaverse. Interest in the human-centered metaverse has grown enormously, including from researchers and practitioners in the areas of extended reality (e.g., VR, AR, MR, etc.), learning technologies, human-computer interaction, education, psychology and sociology, and philosophy.
