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 .

Andrew explained the concepts very well and contextualized in just the right kind of real world examples, with none of the fluff that's surrounding deep learning these days. Incredibly good teaching.

I have been attending Andrew Ng's classes for a while and I have come to understand and appreciate his style of imparting knowledge and very appreciative of his efforts to educate using MOOC methods.

Liked the course. Homework was better aligned with lectures than in his first Coursera Machine Learning class. Also, I prefer Python to MATLAB any day. Good content and crystal clear explanations.

The course is well structured and objective. Even as I am very 'rusty' in maths I can keep pace with the building blocks of deep neural networks and the basic intuitions behind them. Congratulations!

The best material to start on Deep Learning on the Internet so far.

Andrew Ng is brilliant.

iPython notebook homeworks are extremely effective and high-quality.

Everything is thought out and polished.

A very bottom-up approach to a complex task. I had some familiarity with deep learning already but this course gave me a new perspective that has greatly benefitted my overall intuitions and skills.

Create course, Andrew is a great teacher. It's a good starting point for those who are new to the area. For the ones who have a good calculus analysis base, it's pretty linear and easy to accomplish

Pretty good technical overview with very clear walk-thru. Helps with both intuition and fundamental mathematical architecture. I will try out the code written here on a simple application of my own!

Andrew Ng gave a very thorough intuition behind some black-box operations of Neural Networks work, and the maths although may be confusing but still manageable to a certain level. Highly Recommended

Excellent course that not only teaches us how to implement neural networks but also the math behind them. Building a neural network from scratch, understanding every step is a satisfying experience.

Well, I had no knowledge of neural networks before taking this course, but now i am pretty confident i can build some nn models on my own. Learning from sir, Andrew NG is always the best experience.

Very good course if you want to get into deep learning. last week's task is a bit complected, but the trainer is really good at giving simple and effective lectures . Learned a lot from this course.

Very well explained all of the ideas, in the exams it tests you and checks if you really learned, finally the programing exercises are not easy, but does need programming experience to complete them

Though i knew the basic concepts of Neural Networks, I was glad i did this course. The best part is programming assignments where I get a chance to work on implementing neural networks from scratch.

Really great course I completed machine learning course of Andrew and both were really good.This course goes in depth providing step wise intuition and i really enjoyed the programming assignments .

The course is good, but there is one problem - too much code is ready out of the box and you can pass it without deep understanding. Therefore is up to student how to use it. But overall it is good!

This course gets you a good start in deep learning, given you have a prior knowledge of python. I will suggest it to everyone who wants to get their hands dirty in neural networks and deep learning.
