About the Course

In the fourth course of the Deep Learning Specialization, you will understand how computer vision has evolved and become familiar with its exciting applications such as autonomous driving, face recognition, reading radiology images, and more. By the end, you will be able to build a convolutional neural network, including recent variations such as residual networks; apply convolutional networks to visual detection and recognition tasks; and use neural style transfer to generate art and apply these algorithms to a variety of image, video, and other 2D or 3D data. 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 really enjoyed this course, it would be awesome to see al least one training example using GPU (maybe in Google Colab since not everyone owns one) so we could train the deepest networks from scratch

This is very intensive and wonderful course on CNN. No other course in the MOOC world can be compared to this course's capability of simplifying complex concepts and visualizing them to get intuition.

The lectures were excellent, but many of the exercises and quizzes had "issues" that wasted a lot of time. You need to spend a LOT of time on the internal forums for this course.

Great content and superb videos. The assignments are becoming exponentially more challenging if one is not familiar with Tensorflow as the intro on that framework is rather short.

great lectures.

yet there are some places to improve :

1) the assignment are harder (which could be good) yet they are hard by being less clear

2) there are some bugs in the grader

Good content, I learned a lot. Just one thing, the programing assignments need to be updated to tf > 2.0. Currently running 1.2.1 (released on Jun 30, 2017) in week2 and week4.

I wish to rate this 4.5 out of 5. Some descriptions (eg: YOLO alogrithm) are less elaborate or may be I found it difficult to understand. Overall, it is a very good course. :-)

Good course but lots of technical issues with grading of programming assignments. Did not see these issues in previous courses. Maybe more background on tensorflow is needed.

A bit difficult for people who don't have too much coding experience, especially those who are not familiar with using open-source packages, reading documentation by their own

It would be more helpful and beneficial if there is a deeper explanation for the network architectures involving the forward propagation, backward propagation and optimization

Another very good course, only marred by the problems with running the final 'Happy House' face recognition notebook of week 4: the values did not seem to load into the model.

The course is good but the grades has severa errors - I spent a lot of time to understand what was wrong with my submissions - and was grade problem - consult always de forum.

the course was good but the implementation of the code for style transfer could've been better it was a bit confusing apart from that the course was good and well constructed

Amazing course, providing a lot of insights in state of the art technology. One advantage might be to provide more hand-on in the programming exercises than just.a overview

Very good content and learning value. I would have given it 5 stars were it not for glitches I encountered in the material available including some of the Jupyter notebooks.

Completed some interesting assignments. Concepts are succinctly explained.

I think deploying these solutions in a real-world environment will show how well I have learned it.

The course is great no doubt however, after completing the course I still don't feel confident in writing code in tensorflow and Keras. Need practice to improve my fluency.

Very interesting content. Exercices are getting a bit messy, sometimes it's just not based on what has been learned coding-wise, sometimes there are issues with the grader.

Phenomenal content, but frustrating problems with Jupyter Notebook. A determined programmer will get through those kinds of problems, but it definitely burned up some time.

In content this is a 5 starts course but, there are issues grading the exercises that have being unfixed for quite a while... I hope they'll get fixed for future students.

Nice Course on convolutional Neural Network. They could have used only one framework to complete the course assignments instead of switching between tensorflow and keras.

Very good and well structured lectures. The assignments make you work through some very interesting problems, but there is not a lot room for creativity in the solutions.

I learned a lot. The tensorflow methods are not explained well enough (even if you did the previous courses of this specialization), and it still uses tf1 instead of tf2.

All good, but something is amiss with the submission of the last week's Face recognition notebook. Use manual "Create submission" under "My submission" and then it works.

Great content. 2 hw exercises have some technical issues. E.g. hw4 Face Recognition doesn't teach much content but has a lot of bugs wasting time on it more than needed.

Great course, I would have liked it better if assignments were bit more difficult and also could have dig deeper into fewer CNN techniques rather than skimming over many.

Great course. Kind of getting difficult at week 3-4, especially week 4. Probably needs to be more familiar with TensorFlow in order to handle the programming assignment.
