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....

I know this is intended for a broad audience, but I found that the assignments were too easy. Not that they are testing easy material, but that the answers are almost stated directly in the questions.

One of the best courses I have taken so far. The instructor has been very clear and precise throughout the course. The homework section is also designed in such a way that it helps the student learn .

It really helps a lot as a introduction to neural networks and deep learning. It's OK even if you donot fluent in Python. Most importantly, this course helps me to build self conficence to learn more about AI and DL

Very interesting course that has clearly shown that you don't need a math-heavy education in order to understand how deep learning works. I was surprised to see how the concept of backprop could be easily explained.

It is a great entry level course for those who first come to AI area even without much math background. However, I think it would be better if instructor can provide optional more detailed math behind the algorithm.

Fantastic course that will impart a solid practical understanding of NN. My only (minor) nitpick is that it could use lecture notes or written supplements to help students absorb some of the heavier math derivations

Very good course ! The idea to provide a cloud notebook is very good and makes things a lot easier overall. Helps to just focus on the actual material and the implementation of neural networks. Thank you Andrew NG !

This specialization is long overdue from Andrew Ng. I don't know long I would have taken to understand NN properly if Andrew Ng hadn't started this specialization. Absolutely brilliant teaching from a great teacher.

Thank you Andrew NG for making an awesome course on Deep learning, its very important to learn concepts of machine learning by understanding the algorithm behind it and more importantly not to use as black box tool.

This course is awesome, despite not having a mathematical and computer science background I understood everything. Thanks to Mr Andrew NG for providing the complex material as easy to digest even for nontech folks.

Very good intro to creating deep neural networks using Python. Took me some time revising college linear algebra and calculus, but all in all a very helpful introduction to the world of machine learning. Thank you!

Though I had already worked with DNNs before this course, I found the course impressive, and I learned many new things. A good point about this course is that it teaches you building and training DNNs from scratch.

Yet another exceptional course, rather a whole specialization by Andrew Ng. He is an exceptional teacher with humble manners. I have learned a lot from his Machine learning course and now doing this specialization.

Amazing course and the Assignments will practically fill all the gaps which you encounter.

Make sure you take down notes and visit lectures again if not. worth the effort.

Thanks Andrew Ng for such an amazing course.

An excellent course.However some threads in the discussion forum remain unanswered.I urge the mentors to address each unique thread to the best of their ability without considering the quality of the question asked

This was an amazing experience with Andrew Ng Sir. I got an overview of the concepts in deep learning such as linear regression, logistic regression, vectorization, Overfitting, and underfitting of the module, etc.
