About the Course

In the second course of the Machine Learning Specialization, you will: • Build and train a neural network with TensorFlow to perform multi-class classification • Apply best practices for machine learning development so that your models generalize to data and tasks in the real world • Build and use decision trees and tree ensemble methods, including random forests and boosted trees The Machine Learning Specialization is a foundational online program created in collaboration between DeepLearning.AI and Stanford Online. In this beginner-friendly program, you will learn the fundamentals of machine learning and how to use these techniques to build real-world AI applications. This Specialization is taught by Andrew Ng, an AI visionary who has led critical research at Stanford University and groundbreaking work at Google Brain, Baidu, and Landing.AI to advance the AI field. This 3-course Specialization is an updated and expanded version of Andrew’s pioneering Machine Learning course, rated 4.9 out of 5 and taken by over 4.8 million learners since it launched in 2012. It provides a broad introduction to modern machine learning, including supervised learning (multiple linear regression, logistic regression, neural networks, and decision trees), unsupervised learning (clustering, dimensionality reduction, recommender systems), and some of the best practices used in Silicon Valley for artificial intelligence and machine learning innovation (evaluating and tuning models, taking a data-centric approach to improving performance, and more.) By the end of this Specialization, you will have mastered key theoretical concepts and gained the practical know-how to quickly and powerfully apply machine learning to challenging real-world problems. If you’re looking to break into AI or build a career in machine learning, the new Machine Learning Specialization is the best place to start....

Extremely educational with great examples. Helpful to know Python beforehand or the syntax will become a time sync, and understanding the mathematics as going through the class makes it a decent pace.

After copleting the course I found all conceptual knowlegde for visualising and implementing the algorithm in my work. Before this course I was not using the full potential of the advanced algorithm

As per everything Andrew Ng, very intuitive and easy to understand.

If you're wondering how the backpropagation equations came to be though, check out the videos I made working it out (my way of giving back)

Great course for learning fudamentals of neural networks and decision trees. Andrew Ng is the best instructor I have ever had in my entire education life. I hope he keeps developing open-access classes like this in the future as well. Thank you for those who contributed to bringing this awesome class together.

I had done some courses like this in the past, but it's been 5 years since that time so I wanted to refresh my knowledge. I've got to say that this is by far the best beginner-level course of this type with the teacher giving lots of intuition, something that I find lacking in most other computing courses.

I simply love Andrew Ng's teachings. He makes every topic so easy to understand, while also highlighting the importance of in-depth study.

The labs are great. Interactive visualizations of how transitions take place after every step of algorithm is the best part.

Thanks a lot for creating these courses!

I'll definitely recommend the course to anyone starting out, as it helped breakdown hard concepts into understandable bits. Kudos to our favorite tutor, Prof. Andrew Ng for taking his time to do this. I've been imparted with enormous knowledge, and looking forward to what the future has in stock for me

Although i am not good at Mathematics and neither i have prior knowledge of Mahine Learning algorithms but This course got me from very beginner level into depth of neural network and made me to further explore this field. The course is organized in such a beautiful way so that anyone can understand.

The ideas are explained in a very practical and understandable way. No deep mathematical background is needed to complete the course. Just the high school level and some knowledge about Python programming. Very recommendable course to get a general idea about decission trees and neural networks.

Very good explaining fundamental concept which perfectly hit the balance of theoretical and keeping the idea simple. This helps digesting the concept easier. Quizzes and project labs are outstanding and really hit the level needed to check the understand of the concept to student.

I'm taking the machine learning specialization as my way back to interesting and challenging studies, after years of just boring work as a software developer. I'm really enjoying Andrew's capacity to explain these topics in an easy way while drastically improving my capabilities.

The course was very insightful,.I especially enjoyed it because, aside from explaining the core concepts and algorithms in machine learning, I was taught how and when to apply them, as well as a lot of important advice regarding how to apply and finetune such learning algorithms.

Excelente contenido, conceptualmente accesible para iniciar en el Machine Learning y en Redes Neuronales. Tambén la parte de árboles de decisión fue relativamente nuevo para mí y me gustó mucho como se explicó. Infaltables los chistes de Andrew para distraer entre las ecuaciones.

I am in complete AWE. Couple of years back I took similar course, but I was unable to understand even some simple concepts like Entropy. Andrew made it pretty easy with his simplest form of explanation. The codes were a bit difficult to understand, but Hey... I just started :-)

Perfect introduction to more advanced techniques in machine learning such as neural networks and decision trees. A lot of hands on labs to experiment with and not only are the tools explained itself, but also the way you use the tools, make decisions on which model to use, etc.

I am impressed by the instructors of how they are capable of explaining things on simple terms. I knew about this algorithms explained here but I have learned new stuff that completes my understanding of them and can help me to deploy them when they do not work as expected.

The material presented was clear and easy to understand, the algorithms are explained by Dr. Ng in a manner that "you can visualize..." the logic. The programming part is done totally, you have just to follow the code.

In summary, it was a great learning experience. Thanks
