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 .

This course launches you into the seemingly daunting world of Deep Learning. But Andrew Ng breaks it down into as basic of mathematics as possible, and gives you the necessary insight and confidence going forward.

Its an amazing course! I enjoyed the Calculus computations involved in the backward propagation as I knew calculus from before. Andrew NG explains concepts in simple terms and that makes this course special to me!

Extremely helpful if someone wants a career in machine learning specialization. The instructor, Dr Ng is truly awesome at his skills to teach students with zero initial knowledge in the field of AI or mathematics.

Great course for learning about neural networks. But good python knowledge is required for doing the assignment. Also, more details on vectorization and method of implementing in python for more cases would help.

Muy buen curso, lo recomiendo mucho. Seria interesante que incluyan una tarea de programación más compleja, que sirva de práctica para aprender más detalladamente. Aún así, como curso de introducción es excelente.

During my college days I used to be scared of neural networks. This is the first time in my life I am able to implement it. Don't know how Andrew did this. He is not just a great researcher , and a better teacher.

It was hard in the second week to accept and be familiar at the definition of the words, but after that, my understanding towards deep learning get more faster!! I want to thank professor Andrew Ng for hard work!!

Very well structured, step by step explanations, going deep into the material so you'd understand the purpose of the nn details and specifications. The professor is giving the best possible lectures on this topic.

Its a course that exposes you the underlying theory of deep learning. You may not need this while using tensorflow etc. however it will give you a greater understanding of how the whole thing works. Its not magic.

A perfect course for those who already have some basic understanding of machine learning. And of course some understanding of linear algebra , probability theory and calculus makes you a great fit for this course.

I think Andrew gave a very structured and detailed introduction. In later courses, he progressively add more information to this big framework. This course is very foundational but useful. I learned a lot from it.

Same as the Machine Learning course, Andrew and co. made it very easy to learn, at the same time go into a lot of details and inspire lots of ideas. Highly recommended to anyone interested in ML or Neuron Networks

Andrew does fantastic job at explaining how NN computation works (forward/backward pass and gradients). Working things out on paper and then with Python at 1-n layered networks delivers the point very effectively.

This course is for those who want to enter the world of deep learning. I used it as a recap of what I've already read. The notation used in this course is excellent and greatly reduces the complexity of learning.
