4. Negative sign of weight indicates?
a) excitatory input
b) inhibitory input
c) excitatory output
d) inhibitory output
View Answer

5. The amount of output of one unit received by another unit depends on what?
a) output unit
b) input unit
c) activation value
d) weight
View Answer

Answer: d
Explanation: Activation is sum of wieghted sum of inputs, which gives desired output..hence output depends on weights.
