Abstract: A method of generating a 3D microstructure using a neural network includes configuring an initial 3D microstructure; obtaining a plurality of cross-sectional images by disassembling the initial 3D microstructure in at least one direction of the initial 3D microstructure; obtaining first output feature maps with respect to at least one layer that constitutes the neural network by inputting each of the cross-sectional images to the neural network; obtaining second output feature maps with respect to at least one layer by inputting a 2D original image to the neural network; generating a 3D gradient by applying a loss value to a back-propagation algorithm after calculating the loss value by comparing the first output feature maps with the second output feature maps; and generating a final 3D microstructure based on the 2D original image by reflecting the 3D gradient to the initial 3D microstructure.
