This paper proposes a machine learning-based approach using wearable sensor data to estimate clinical scores for upper-limb motor impairment and movement quality in stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. Strong agreement was found between sensor-based estimates and clinician-generated scores (R² = 0.86 for impairment severity, R² = 0.79 for movement quality). This approach enables continuous monitoring of patient response to rehabilitation, paving the way for patient-specific interventions to maximize motor recovery.
