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 .

The Course has been designed in such a manner at the end of it , you become so aquainted to complex mathematical operations and begin to understand the basic architecture of a neural network at nuts and bolts level. Thanks AG :)

Helped me understand the mathematics behind Neural Nets and helped me dive deeper into Deep Learning. The programming assignments were really well made and enjoyable to solve. Professor NG explained all concepts very thoroughly.

Overall, an excellent class, with a good balance between video lessons , quizzes, and coding assignments. The Notebooks and automated graders are a bit delicate but the Discussion section and community eases the learning curve.

A very comprehensive overview of ANN. I finally understood the nuts and bolts of deep learning. But this field is deep and challenging, it definitely requires a lot of practice! Thanks Prof Andrew Ng, for delivering this course.

Andrew's course is really great. Especially the code parts, I really enjoy it and have experienced a lot of skills in coding. I've learned a lot about neural networks in this course, and I think I could do better in the future.

The concepts well presented. The interviews with technical leaders in ML were very educational. Andrew Ng has a very deep understanding of the concepts and ability to present them in a simple manner. Reminds me of the KISS rule.

This is the best course I have ever taken about neural network. The hand-by-hand programming practice clarify a lot of questions I got while reading the theoretical materials. Really appreciate all the good design of the course.

I really like this course since it goes to the basics of Neural Network while explaining the basics of machine learning. Nevertheless, for the higher levels of NN, I would hope more discussions of the mathematical possibilities.

Concepts very well explained, All the exercises are must to do to understand the content properly. All in all, a very nice , concise, understandable explanation of the domain. A must-to-do for anyone willing to learn DL. Thanks.

It is good but there are some limitations to what students learned there should be optional exercises for those who want to go deeper into the neural networks even more and how each of the function is working. Thanks Andrew Sir.

I like the course very much. Some advices for the class. The class could show us the slices and canbe download and Andrew could write the course with the ppt while not for the mouse. Some words are not very clearly with writing.

This course is excellent to get a start of deeplearning.

I really emphasize this.

Dr. Ng is an awesome professor who can simplify abstract and complex concepts to a really linear knowledge flow i.e. removed activation layer hahha

Awesome course. Instructor has put so much effort in explaining every concept. He repeated it so many times that it fits into the memory. So humble to explain everything. Thanks so much Andrew.

Recommend this course to everyone.

The best introductory course one could ask for! Covers Neural Networks from absolute scratch and adds layers on top of it with every passing lecture. Andrew is an absolute delight in the way he explains everything so elegantly.

A legend once said that AI is the new electricity and if it is like that then I just hope Andrew NG Sir is Nikola Tesla and not Edison!

Once again thanks to coursera for providing the opportunity of being a student of Andrew NG.

Very well structured lectures and nicely prepared programming assignments.

Information and insight beyond formulae were greatly appreciated, especially the interviews with leading researchers and practitioners from the AI field.

A great course indeed! Although I had worked with deep networks before, I did not know behind the screen operations and calculations. This has enabled me to see the whole concept in a completely different perspective. Thank You

It was a good course only Issue I faced in Week 4 Assignment. Where 2 functions even though my code is correct function "linear_activation_forward" & "linear_activation_backward" I am getting error as shapes were not matching.
