Abstract: Disclosed herein are a decoding method and apparatus and an encoding method and apparatus that perform inter-prediction using a motion vector predictor. For a candidate block in a col picture, a scaled motion vector is generated based on a motion vector of the candidate block. When the scaled motion vector indicates a target block, a motion vector predictor of the target block is generated based on the motion vector of the candidate block. The motion vector predictor is used to derive the motion vector of the target block in a specific inter-prediction mode such as a merge mode and an AMVP mode.

Abstract: A composition may increase a rate of endometrial blood flow and a composition for increasing implantation potential, including botulinum toxin or a salt thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition may preventing or treating subfertility or infertility, including botulinum toxin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Such compositions can increase a rate of endometrial blood flow and improve embryonic implantation potential just by being applied to the endometrium, and thus may be helpful to patients with subfertility or infertility, especially those who have repetitive failures in embryonic implantation. Since the compositions include botulinum toxin which is a substance that has been widely applied to the human body for cosmetic purposes, studies on human toxicity may have a shortened period, and thus the disclosure is very useful in economical and industrial aspects.
