# Slot: weight_parameter 


_Per-node stimulus weighting supplied as a Parameter, so a DERIVED weighting carries its provenance instead of being inlined as a list of numbers. Use it when the weighting is measured or computed rather than hand-listed: `source:` + `measure:` names the stored array, `producer:` names the call that builds it (an ROI mask projected through a basis, a retinotopic map, a measured stimulation field). This is the same provenance triple every other external array uses, so a spatial stimulus pattern is described by where it came from rather than by a literal a reader cannot check. Resolved at load time into the per-node `weights`, aligned with `nodes` exactly as a literal weighting is; mutually exclusive with `weight_distribution`, and a literal `weights` wins over both._
