XRAI (VR/MR and GenAI) for Strengthening Mental Resilience

📄Summary

The research idea focuses on VR Exposure Therapy using Virtual Reality (VR), Large Language Models (LLMs), Vision-Language Models (VLMs), and Generative AI for 3D asset creation, while exploring the following research questions addressing "XR and GenAI for Mental Health (Behaviour Change)":

1. How effective is VR in inducing behaviour change, based on empirical studies?
2. Are current 3D Generative AI techniques useful for creating 3D virtual environments and assets for inducing behaviour change use cases? How can they be improved?
3. Are current LLM-based models suitable for creating Agentic Chatbots that help induce behaviour change? How can we enhance them to enable more empathetic and effective conversations for this purpose?
