1. The back propagation (BP) neural network model of 5-degree of freedom (DOF) upper limb rehabilitant robot was built.

2. Both groups were analyzed with respect to functional parameters and activities in daily life (ADL) during the course of rehabilitation as well as the discharge location (home versus nursing home). A total of 30 major-limb-amputee and 77 nonmajor-limb-amputee rehabilitants could be analyzed.
