Moreover, they exhibit excellent pharmacological safety for cardiovascular systems.

Abstract: An image encoding/decoding method and apparatus are provided. An image decoding method performed by an image decoding apparatus may include obtaining a residual block of a current block encoded in an intra prediction mode from a bitstream, deriving a modified residual block by performing differential encoding with respect to the residual block, based on differential encoding mode information obtained from the bitstream indicating a differential encoding mode of a residual coefficient, and deriving a residual block of the current block by performing dequantization with respect to the modified residual block.

Abstract: A recombinant vesicular stomatitits virus (rVSV) having a Zika virus (ZIKV) envelope (E) gene, a prime boost immunization combination against ZIKV including: (a) a prime vaccine or immunogenic composition comprising a recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (rVSV) carrying a ZIKV envelope (E) protein, and (b) a boost vaccine or immunogenic composition comprising a rVSV carrying the same ZIKV E protein. The ZIKV gene can be genetically modified to encode a modified ZIKV E protein that elevates glycoprotein synthesis and trigger efficient humoral immune response.

Abstract: This invention relates to an adjuvant composition containing at least one binding molecule for neutralizing influenza virus and a vaccine composition containing the same. The composition containing at least one binding molecule for neutralizing influenza virus is capable of increasing the effects of a vaccine, and can thus be used as an adjuvant, which increases an immune response upon vaccine administration, and is very useful in the prevention of diseases caused by viruses.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for a carrier aggregation (CA) operation using a Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) carrier and a Time Division Duplex (TDD) carrier in a wireless communication system are provided. The method includes receiving downlink signals via downlink FDD TDD CA using a first carrier operated in an FDD mode and a second carrier operated in a TDD mode and transmitting, via the first carrier, uplink signals corresponding to the downlink signals received via the first and second carriers.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a real wood film and a method of manufacturing an injection-molded real wood product by using the real wood film. The real wood film includes: a sliced veneer; a non-woven fabric adhered to the bottom surface of the sliced veneer by means of a non-aqueous adhesive, and configured to protect the sliced veneer from moisture; a formation improvement layer adhered to the bottom surface of the non-woven fabric, and configured to prevent the sliced veneer from being wrinkled due to heat applied to the sliced veneer and prevent a crack from occurring; and a thermoplastic adhesive layer adhered to the bottom surface of the formation improvement layer, and configured to enable adhesion to injected resin.

Abstract: An apparatus for a terminal in a wireless communication system includes a receiver configured to receive frame configuration information used by a second carrier which is operated using a Time Division Duplex (TDD) scheme and receive downlink data through downlink TDD-Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) Carrier Aggregation (CA) using a first carrier and the second carrier operated using an FDD scheme and a transmitter configured to transmit uplink data via the first carrier. The downlink data received via the second carrier is received through a downlink subframe identified by the frame configuration information.

Abstract: A cosmetics case includes a lower member including an adhesive surface on a lower surface thereof for attachment to a side of a cellular phone or a case of the cellular phone and an accommodation space provided in one side of an upper surface thereof to accommodate a cosmetic product, and an upper member placed on an upper portion of the lower member and configured to selectively slide in a direction opposite the one side to open the accommodation space provided in the one side of the lower member. The cosmetics case further includes a mirror and is configured to be mounted on a side of a cellular phone or a cellular phone case.

Abstract: There is provided a method of masking an object of non-interest by a masking apparatus. The method comprises acquiring first video information of a region of interest, determining a first object of non-interest area as an area in which motion vectors are present in the first video information of the region of interest, removing spatial noise from the first object of non-interest area to acquire a second object of non-interest area including at least a part of the first object of non-interest area and generating a mask corresponding to the second object of non-interest area.

Abstract: A method includes acquiring, by a device, encoded image data corresponding to an original image. The method includes decoding, by the device, the encoded image data. The method included acquiring, by the device, a foreground extraction target frame and an encoding parameter associated with an encoding process of the original image based on decoding the encoded image data. The method includes extracting, by the device, a first candidate foreground associated with the foreground extraction target frame based on the encoding parameter. The method includes extracting, by the device, a second candidate foreground associated with the foreground extraction target frame based on a preset image processing algorithm. The method includes determining, by the device, a final foreground associated with the foreground extraction target frame based on the first candidate foreground and the second candidate foreground.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling an adaptive flow in a wireless communication system is provided. A method of a master base station in a wireless communication system, in which base stations having different cell sizes coexist, comprises the steps of: receiving load information from at least one other base station, receiving channel information about the at least one other base station from a terminal connected to the master base station, determining a secondary base station capable of load sharing for the terminal on basis of the channel information and the load information, and requesting, from the terminal, a further connection to the secondary base station. Offloading for downlink transmission of the terminal is determined based on the load information of a small cell. Furthermore, a resource distribution ratio for downlink transmission of the terminal is determined based on channel quality information reported from the terminal.
