It aims to build a virtual environment that people can interact with the world and cooperate with each other. In this survey paper, we re-introduce metaverse in a new framework based on a broad range of technologies, including perception which enables us to precisely capture the characteristics of the real world, computation which supports the large computation requirement over large-scale data, reconstruction which builds the virtual world from the real one, cooperation which facilitates long-distance communication and teamwork between users, and interaction which bridges users and the virtual world. Despite its popularity, the fundamental techniques in this framework are still immature. Innovating new techniques to facilitate the applications of metaverse is necessary. In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI), especially deep learning, has shown promising results for empowering various areas, from science to industry. It is reasonable to imagine how we can combine AI with the framework in order to promote the development of metaverse. In this survey, we present the recent achievement by AI for metaverse in the proposed framework, including perception, computation, reconstruction, cooperation, and interaction. We also discuss some future works that AI can contribute to metaverse. UR - https://doi.org/10.26599/AIR.2022.9150004 DO - 10.26599/AIR.2022.9150004
