New labeling terminology

To understand labeling in Nexus 2, note the following terms:

❙     Labeling: Any process, operation or algorithm that is used in Vicon Nexus to assign a label to a reconstruction

 

❙     Modeling: Takes labeled reconstructions and uses these to perform calculations whose results are new variables.

 

❙     Models: Files or operations that produce new calculations after labeling. Plug-in Gait and the Oxford Foot Model are models, as are MOD files built in BodyBuilder.

❙     Subject: The representation in Nexus of a physical entity (eg a patient)

❙     Labeling skeleton template (VST): Contains information and definitions related to labeling.

❙     Labeling skeleton (VSK): A subject that has a labeling skeleton template attached to it and subject-specific properties that are required for modeling (after labeling)
