Abstract: A coding tool is provided to improve the compression performance of inter prediction and is used at the encoder/decoder side to adjust the correction of a motion vector based on a high level syntax. In addition, a method is provided for simply performing an integer sample search step of searching for an integer offset and a fractional sample refinement step of searching for a sub-pixel offset in relation to motion vector refinement among coding tools.

Abstract: A video decoding apparatus is provided for decoding pictures using inter-prediction. The video decoding apparatus includes a predictor that generates affine prediction samples for respective subblocks in a target block in a current picture to be decoded by performing affine motion prediction on a subblock-by-subblock basis using control point motion vectors which respectively correspond to corners of the target block. The predictor also modifies sample values of the affine prediction samples by executing a first coding tool, the first coding tool compensating for motion according to sample positions in each of the subblocks using the control point motion vectors.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system test apparatus. The system test apparatus includes an insertion module configured to insert a test agent into a process control block, a hooking module configured to hook a test target to a test code using the test agent when an event related to the test target occurs, a scanning module configured to collect pieces of test information about a process in which the event related to the test target has occurred when the test target is hooked, and a logging module configured to store the pieces of test information collected by the scanning module.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a communication test apparatus. The communication test apparatus includes an insertion module configured to insert a test agent into the process control block, a hooking module configured to hook a test target to a test code using the test agent when an event-related to communication occurs between the plurality of processes, a scanning module configured to collect pieces of test information about communication between the plurality of processes when the test target is hooked to the test code, and a logging module configured to store the pieces of test information collected by the scanning module.
