  • One or more output connections that carry the signal for the other neurons
  • An activation function determines the numerical value of the output signal, on the basis of the signals received from the input connections with other neurons, and suitably collected from the weights associated with each picked-up signal and the activation threshold of the neuron itself

The following figure represents the artificial neuron:
