1. A computer-implemented method for providing a label of a body part on an X-ray image, comprising:
receiving input data, the input data being based on at least two among a red, green and blue (RGB) image of the body part, a depth image of the body part or an X-ray image of the body part, the input data including,
context information or shape information derived from the RGB image, or
shape information derived from the depth image;
applying a plurality of trained functions to the input data to generate separate output data associated with the at least two among the RGB image, the depth image or the X-ray image, a total output data being provided by a consensus protocol based on the separate output data, the total output data being the label of the body part, and the label indicating a right body part or a left body part; and
providing the total output data.
