About the Course

In the second course of the Deep Learning Specialization, you will open the deep learning black box to understand the processes that drive performance and generate good results systematically. By the end, you will learn the best practices to train and develop test sets and analyze bias/variance for building deep learning applications; be able to use standard neural network techniques such as initialization, L2 and dropout regularization, hyperparameter tuning, batch normalization, and gradient checking; implement and apply a variety of optimization algorithms, such as mini-batch gradient descent, Momentum, RMSprop and Adam, and check for their convergence; and implement a neural network in TensorFlow. 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....

Fantastic course and although it guides you through the course (and may feel less challenging to some) it provides all the building blocks for you to latter apply them to your own interesting project.

Thank you Andrew!! I know start to use Tensorflow, however, this tool is not well for a research goal. Maybe, pytorch could be considered in the future!! And let us know how to use pytorch in Windows.

too complicated, many lessens in couple of short videos.

poor video transcript

more python / tensorflow, as well as data exploration and cleaning is welcome

Very good. The only downside is the reliance on an old version of Tensorflow

Excellent on the basis. could cite frameworks like hyperopt, hyperas, etc...

Builds really well. Didn't know about gradient checking before this course!

everything is good, jypyter notebooks are slow gets confused in assignments

The Tensorflow part was hard. Pleas add more explaination to the notebook.

Pls update to Tensorflow 2.0. Its a bit discouraging to learn and unlearn.

very good lecure.

somewhat difficult to me. I will repeat again and again.

Would have been more helpful if TensorFlow was covered in greater detail.

Practices are more like "type after me" than a real learning opportunity.

Excelent course with very interesting insigth on tuning a multilayer ANN.
