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 .

Very well set up. The Lectures are set up in a way which will reinforce important computations while giving you an understanding of WHY this computation happens/works. Very much enjoyed going through this course.

This course gave me a solid practical ideas how to implement a simple neural network in Python. Also, it improved my knowledge of the neural networks at whole, so it's very useful for the beginners in this field.

Amazing course! It was a pleasure learning with you. I would strongly recommend taking this course, as you will get strong knowledge of not only how to use neural networks, but also on the mathematics background.

I would be very happy to get more visual explanation on the matrix for backpropagation and cache relationship. The course covers every aspect very well and the optional content is also very intriguing. Thank you!

Extremely interesting. I was able to fully grasp how backpropagation works and how learning actually takes place. I feel that I understand the fundamentals of deep learning quite well after completing the course!

The teacher explained very well, step by step. I loved the course because you understand both theoretical and practical parts. And it's very good that there are Portuguese legends, I managed to follow the course.

Best Course to Learn DL.There was not a single thing that I didn't understand also the assignments were so exciting and also ordered in such a way that everything I did came out to be true. Thanks deeplearning.ai

The course was perfect taught, yet the assignments wasn't that handy since the implementation is no near from the production level and also writing just tiny pieces of code does not make you aware of all content.

A bit more of explanation on how the elementwise product formula for dZ[1] in gradient descent/backward prop of deep neural network has been derived. Not clear how outputs of a cache are really used in back prop.

This course is recommended for the math backed people. or those who have finished the introductions into machine learnings. The mathematical innards have been explain with such simplicity. Its an awesome course!!

This course has really helped me to understand what is deep learning and how it is implemented. Andrew ng, as always, has done a great job in explaining all the concepts involved in solving deep learning problems

Wish the forum Q&A were optimized for better searches. I really enjoyed the hands-on approach even though I am not a software developer. I am a technical product manager trying to understand the general approach.

I am thankful to the Prof. Andrew Ng and Coursera to provide this online learning platform to the learners like me. I like this course and the way Prof. Andrew Ng explained the Neural Network concept profoundly.

Clears all the basics and very conceptual. So good for those who wanna dive deep into neural networks. The graded assignments were awesome, where one builds neural network from scratch. Overall a nice experience.

This was recommended to me by a colleague, and I was not at all disappointed. Top-notch course, I learned a lot and had a fun time working through the programming labs. I will definitely recommend this to others.

Very good introduction to neural networks. The teacher takes his time to clearly explain the mathematical background and the coding - including many repetition which are needed for this topic. Highly recommended.

Great course, to the point and with enough detail to keep you interested and not discourage.

Also, the interviews with Deep Learning professionals keep you motivated and are very interesting.

Great job, keep it up!

Great Course. Concepts like Back Propagation are taught in a very simplified manner. Great exercises give you confidence on how NN functions internally, instead of just using them as a black box. Much recommended

Excelente curso, construção de redes neurais desde sua base e dicas de melhores práticas.

Algumas legendas estão erradas ou dessincronizadas mas ainda assim é possível entender.

Ainda sem tradução para o Português.

I took his course about Machine Learning about 3 years ago It was really helpful to understand ML. This course is much improved not only in the content itself but also the coding exercise. Thank you Prof. Andrew!

The course is really amazing and its well structured. With a background in Mechanical Engineering and no prior knowledge , I learned alot and I am now all confident to build and train deep layer neural networks.

Exceptional material and organization. This is not a critque of the course. The python libraries and mixing of properties and OO approaches with programming conventions makes one wish there was something better.

This lectures gave me the skill to implement neural networks from scratch. Since we covered in depth how neural networks and deep neural networks work, we can adapt this theory to any other programming language.

I found the course very useful and informative. I am looking forward to learning the second course!

Thank you very much for making all students in the world can touch closely to Deep Learning's wonderful World!!

That was one of the the most beneficial course, I have ever taken.

Sir Andrew NG,

All students who are enthusiastic Data Science and be unable to reach good education,

appreciate to you!

Thanks for all!
