Abstract:: Abstract: The automatic rehabilitation evaluation methods rely on a variety of sensors to automatically score or grade the motor function in stroke patients, which minimizes or even does not require the participation of physicians in the evaluation process, and has the advantages of simple process, quick assessment and high efficiency. Herein the basic principle and the general process of automatic rehabilitation evaluation are reviewed. According to the dimensions of the evaluation, the automatic rehabilitation evaluation methods are divided into 3 categories which are based on motion capture technology, neurophysiological signals, and multi-information combination, respectively. The research advances in recent years are summarized from various aspects such as evaluation principles, sensors, evaluation indicators and others, and the difficulties existing in automatic rehabilitation evaluation are also analyzed.
