Hello,

'Weights' is the tap weights vector (complex numbers), often noted as w, whereas 'WeightInputs' is the tap input vector, often noted as u. Such that the current output of the filter is

y=w'*u;

where ' denotes the hermitian transpose. You can see these notations used in table 2.1 in the preview of this textbook for instance.
