Abstract
According to embodiments of the present document, symmetric motion vector differences (SMVDs) and merge mode motion vector differences (MMVDs) according to an inter prediction mode may be performed on the basis of reference picture types and, particularly, short term reference pictures may be used. Therefore, prediction performance and coding efficiency in the inter prediction mode can be improved.
