About the Course

In the first course of the Deep Learning Specialization, you will study the foundational concept of neural networks and deep learning. By the end, you will be familiar with the significant technological trends driving the rise of deep learning; build, train, and apply fully connected deep neural networks; implement efficient (vectorized) neural networks; identify key parameters in a neural network’s architecture; and apply deep learning to your own applications. The Deep Learning Specialization is our foundational program that will help you understand the capabilities, challenges, and consequences of deep learning and prepare you to participate in the development of leading-edge AI technology. It provides a pathway for you to gain the knowledge and skills to apply machine learning to your work, level up your technical career, and take the definitive step in the world of AI....

Although I was having good knowledge of NN theory and decent knowledge of Python programming this course with its very clean and practical codes makes implementation of NN quite easy. Versatility of code presented makes it more appealing

great course, from the very very deep & basic level to teach you how to build your own model, after all the assignment you will understand a lot of questions when you study deep learning, and why the mechanism been called a "black box".

Fantastic follow-up to Intro to Machine Learning. Great intro to NN using python, numpy and jupyter notebooks. My favorite part of the course were the interviews and practical advice from Geoffrey Hinton, Peter Abbeel and Ian Goodfellow.

The contents have sufficient technical details to allow a better appreciation of the capabilities of neural networks. Very helpful tips and pointers by professor Ng throughout. The Lab projects s are awesome and sufficiently challenging.

The course was extraordinarily articulate and quite charming! It enabled me to understand the intricacies of Deep Learning and helped me to take a deeper look into it on my own and even take it up as a career

Kudos to Dr. Andy Ng and Team

Despite coming into this course with a basic understanding of deep learning and neural networks I learned a lot from this introductory course. The information is presented in such a unique way that most anyone will pick up something new.

Superb explanations. Until now I was observing the neural network revolution from distance, this course finally gave me the courage to step up and deep dive into the workings of this fascinating innovation. Thank you Andrew and the team.

Thank you for a truly inspiring and practical course. Courses like these will bridge the gap between the growing strain on educational institutions to provide practical, up-to-date training, and the growing demand for lifelong learning.

Absolute fantastic, great video, explaination and examples are well thought out. The quiz and the assignment are meant to solidify core concept meant for practical use. It truely feels like an education course equaivalent to IRL degree.

It was a great course, very interesting and detailed. The only issue I have with it was probably my own fault, I need to spend more time practicing each week to let the concepts properly sink in (more practice examples would be nice)

I come to this course after completing the 11 week ML course of Stanford. I found the current course and improvement and a consolidation of the learning in the earlier course. Look forward to the remaining modules in the specialisation

This is one of the best Coursera courses I've ever had, it does not require high level of programming skills, and it also explains the very details and mathematics behind the neural network, yet it is very lightweight for 'math phobics'

The course provides a complete overview of logistic regression and neural networks. The video and exercises cover all the details required to understand the concepts.

suggestion: the video's can be edited to update the minor corrections.

This course was amazing to start deep learning, concepts were explained well the inuitions and mathematics behind them and the implementations of a neural network from scratch was helpful and allowed us to understand the concepts well.

The programming exercises were super helpful in filling the gaps from the videos. I liked how the course was prepared to really teach the important features of neural networks regardless of their level of difficulty. No vanilla content.

It is a great course to learn the mathematical background and matrix implementation of artificial neural networks. Python vectorization of FOR loops is a great advantage to train on large data sets or large architecture neural networks.

The best course I have ever taken! Thanks Andrew!

At the end of this course I can build a neural network from scratch! This month of work worth so much.

I also like the interviews of heros of deep learning so much. They are so inspiring!

The course give an simply instruction of deep learning and neural networks, though the knowledge is a little simple and the math of the lesson is not very strict, you will still learn a lot from the well-design homework and the speech!
