Claim 8:
9. An apparatus for estimating contact distribution to estimate contact spot distribution between a first contact surface and a second contact surface, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor configured to execute a process for calculating the contact spot distribution based on a deep learning model,
wherein the deep learning model is configured to:
receive a contact surface image of at least one of the first contact surface and the second contact surface and estimate contact spot distribution between the first contact surface and the second contact surface using a convolution neural network based on the contact surface image,
wherein the at least one processor includes a surface measurement unit configured to obtain a first contact surface image from the first contact surface and obtain a second contact surface image from the second contact surface,
wherein the deep learning model is configured to output the contact spot distribution based on the first contact surface image and the second contact surface image.
