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 good beginner introduction to the course ... the instructor is very specific in explaining all the concepts in the course and every sentence is based on either proven experience or a fact.

I am very happy to start learning deep_learning through Coursera. I think, as an architect, the explanations from Andrew NG and the mentor's comments in discussions were very clear and helpful!

This was an excellent introduction into deep learning. I had covered these topics before in another class but not at this detailed level. I'm looking forward to the other classes in the series.

Amazing course, I have learned more from this than my AI course at university (I haven't really been paying attention to be entirely honest). Will keep on learning with the rest of the courses.

Great beginner course that gets into the nitty-gritty of deep-learning. A bit rough if you're not a developer but the forums are filled with valuable information that can be accessed if needed.

Very good course! I learnt a lot about the basics of neural networks and deep learning. The best part is that I implemented my learning through the programming assignments which were very good!

i like the extra class where andrew explain the fundamendal math behind the seen.

love the practical application where jupyter notebook is realy help to understand the implemantion using numpy.

After finishing Andrew Ng's Machine Learning course, I thought this course starts slowly. However, later on it was getting really close to perfection.

Thank you all for such a wonderful course!

Great class sometimes a bit redundant . However Prof Andrew Ng is a really precise with his notation and make sure you can understand the finer details. I would recommend it twice to anyone.

Amazing course. The beginning wasn't easy at all because i didn't understand each piece separately, but in the end everything just made complete sense. Thanks Andrew NG for the amazing course.

I simply can say that I learned a lot. The only thing is that it seems too much "controlled"; the homework is too simplified and easy to find out what to do. But it still works; kind of magic

A big thank you to Andrew and his team. The most important thing that I learned, is the black-box view of deep neural networks. The mathematics and coding part is well balanced in this course.

It was tougher than I originally anticipated. However it's certainly fun to go through. Also the TAs are excellent. I noticed that most questions get answered very fast and in a helpful way.

I found the videos easy to follow. I only had a general idea about neural networks, and this course has helped me to understand them better. I also found the programming assignments enjoyable.

The best neural network course to learn building NNs from scratch. I have tried to read many books to understand the concept of NNs but I must say this course has the best explanation for NNs.

The first step into learning the nuances of neural networks. Andrew Ng is a great teacher, who explains seemingly impropable concepts very clearly. Highly recommended for new age professionals

Nice mix of theory and practice, knowledge gained in lectures cemented by guided assignments. Also a great refresher for those of us who haven't worked with the underlying math for some time.
