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 highly appreciated the interviews at the end of some weeks. I am currently trying to transition from a research background in Systems/Computational Biology to work professionally in deep learning :)

Very good course to start Deep learning. But you need to have the basic idea first. I would suggest to do the Stanford Andrew Ng Machine Learning course first and then take this specialization courses

Excellent material, excellent presentation, excellent pace. I would say that the programming assignments were a little less challenging than expected but still learned a great deal from them.

Excellent introduction to shallow and deep neural network. I have particularly appreciated the way backpropagation has been explained, making it as clear as, I believe, it's possible.

this course gives you very powerful tools with a real possibility to apply the new skills on real problem. As the previous course (Machine learning by Standford), Andrew Ng is the best prof!

Very clear. Coming from a scientific background, with lots of mathematics, I found the explanation a bit too long, so I skipped some parts; the notebooks were sometimes enough to understand.

Excellent course

Especially would like to thank Andrew Sir.

Though i understand concepts clearly, just had a bit hard time understanding the back propagation.

Thank you for an excellent course.

Effectively, yet smoothly, takes you from the shallow waters of basic statistical prediction to the deep waters of neural network. I bet you'll enjoy swimming there alongside your lifeguard.

This is a great class. You will understand the big picture of neural networks after you complete this course. I do wish that Andrew Ng could add a full week of lectures for matrix calculus!!
