Abstract
Telecommunications and computer vision solutions have evolved significantly in recent years, allowing a huge advance in the functionalities and applications offered. However, these two fields have been making their way as separate areas, not exploring the potential benefits of merging the innovations brought from each of them. In challenging environments, for example, combining radio sensing and computer vision can strongly contribute to solving problems such as those introduced by obstructions or limited lighting. Machine learning algorithms, able to fuse heterogeneous and multi-modal data, are also a key element for understanding and inferring additional knowledge from raw and low-level data, able to create a new abstracting level that can significantly enhance many applications. This paper introduces the CONVERGE vision-radio concept, a new paradigm that explores the benefits of integrating two fields of knowledge towards the vision of View-to-Communicate, Communicate-to-View. The main concepts behind this vision, including supporting use cases and the proposed architecture, are presented. CONVERGE introduces a set of tools integrating wireless communications and computer vision to create a novel experimental infrastructure that will provide open datasets to the scientific community of both experimental and simulated data, enabling new research addressing various 6 G verticals, including telecommunications, automotive, manufacturing, media, and health.

Abstract
This chapter examines how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Learning Analytics (LA) are transformingdistanceeducation, accelerated by the COVID-19 shift toe-learning. By using data from Learning Management Systems (LMS), these technologies can personalize learning, improve student retention, and automate tasks. AI, particularly machine learning, enables dynamic adaptation to student needs, while LA provides valuable insights for informed instructional decisions. However, ethical concerns, including data privacy and algorithmic bias, must be addressed to ensure equitable access and fair learning outcomes. The future of distance learning lies in responsible integration of AI and LA, creating immersive and inclusive educational experiences. © 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.

Abstract
The ever-changing landscape of distance learning AI and learning analytics transforms engagement and efficiency in education. AI systems analyze behavior and performance data to provide real-time feedback for improved outcomes. Learning analytics further help educators to identify at-risk students while fostering better teaching strategies. By integrating AI with learning analytics, distance education becomes more inclusive, ensuring learners receive the support necessary to thrive in an increasingly digital and knowledge-driven world. AI and Learning Analytics in Distance Learning explores the development of distance learning. It examines the challenges of using these systems and integrating them with distance learning. The book covers topics such as AI, distance learning technology, and management systems, and is an excellent resource for academicians, educators, researchers, computer engineers, and data scientists. © 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
