Recommender Systems, Reinforcement Learning culminating in teaching a simulated Lunar Lander to land itself! I bet SpaceX something similar for the 'real' starship landing; it's much more complicated!

Good pace and really well-designed for those who are total strangers to machine learning. I could follow along quite easily and looking forward to try out some of those algorithms on my own free time.

I would like to thank all the members of Coursera for designing this course, especially Dr. Andrew Ng for teaching such complex stuff with much clarity and with fun-based activities (videos and labs). I really like the tools you used for the demonstration purpose (e.g. the toys of your daughter :))

I hope to make the best use of this learning.

Thank You once again.

A sincere thanks to Andrew and all Deep learning AI crew, you guys/gals are the light of machine learning community.

I have a kid of 3, cant wait to introduce all your guys hard work to him someday in the future. Maybe (hopefully not) he is not interested in these topics, but the thing I want him to know is " how to define good people", my answer is "they share and care".

Andrew is an excellent instructor who can break down complicated concepts into pieces that are much easier to understand. I enrolled both Machine Learning course (the old version) and Machine Learning specialization (latest version) and found both of them entertaining and informative. Hopefully I will learn more about AI from courses provided by Andrew in the future!

I've been previously exposed to recommender systems and reinforcement learning. However, I couldn't really understand what was going on underneath them. This course gave me the concepts and tools to understand how these algorithms actually work. Though these algorithms are a bit complex, I feel better prepared to upskill myself in using these tools. Thank you!

Good course. I learn balanced amount of theoretical and practical knowledge in Machine Learning. This course equips me extravagantly to wide range of knowledge in machine learning. However, there is no in video quizzes which I believe useful to check my knowledge before graded quizzes. Overall, I satisfied with the course and very recommend this to others.

Outstanding set of courses.

My only criticism is that it is not at all clear how/where to download the lecture slides or the files for the programming assignments for ones reference later on or how to access the discussion forums - there are absolutely no links on any of the courses' pages.

Overall, the instruction quality and content are simply superb.

With the last course of the specialization, I gained useful knowledge about machine learning techniques such as recommender systems or reinforcement learning, which are used in modern applications today. I think this specialization will be one of the best starters for those who are starting machine learning or want to improve their existing knowledge.

My interest in Machine Learning peeked after taking this course with Andrew. He is such a great teacher. He made the most difficult concepts easy to understand. I just have to keep practicing this course again once more to "reinforce' my learning. This specialization is a solid start for anyone who wants to break into Data Science and ML. Best Wishes

Andrew Ng has an amazing talent of breaking down even the most complex topic to its core components, making it clear not only how it works, but also how, when, and why to implement different algorithms. Through diagrams and coding exercises, he has helped me to understand the processes of so many machine learning algorithms, and he made it fun.

From the three courses of the Machine Learning Specialization, this one was the one most familiar to me, specially recommenders, which I've spent some time working with before. Same as the other two courses, good content and clear explanations. The support material for all the three courses are great also, something I forgot to mention before.

This is a great course,

Andrew Ng is the best lecuter, very easy to follow and a lot of great material.

I lead ML team and for me this was a great review.

Lab assignments are great!

The only issue I had was with replicating RL lab in my notebook envirionment because of external library packages but this is a minor issue.

Superb course. I'd already completed the early course, Machine Learning. This updated course contains some very valuable additions that made "re-doing" the course very worthwhile, especially the reinforcement learning aspects. It was incredible to witness the training, learning and landing re the lunar lander!
