About the Course

In the fourth course of the Deep Learning Specialization, you will understand how computer vision has evolved and become familiar with its exciting applications such as autonomous driving, face recognition, reading radiology images, and more. By the end, you will be able to build a convolutional neural network, including recent variations such as residual networks; apply convolutional networks to visual detection and recognition tasks; and use neural style transfer to generate art and apply these algorithms to a variety of image, video, and other 2D or 3D data. 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 really enjoyed this course, it would be awesome to see al least one training example using GPU (maybe in Google Colab since not everyone owns one) so we could train the deepest networks from scratch

This is very intensive and wonderful course on CNN. No other course in the MOOC world can be compared to this course's capability of simplifying complex concepts and visualizing them to get intuition.

There were some little bugs in the grader, which was sometimes a bit frustrating, but overall I learned some super cool state of the art stuff and the explanations in the videos (maybe except for the YOLO) were very clear.

This is also a wonderful course in Data Specialization series. All the complexities of CNNs are presented in very intuitive and simple manner. The assignments were also very helpful. Thanks Coursera for bringing it to us!

A little bit more detail about the YOLO network like how the bounding boxes contribute to the training process and how it speeds up the iterating process would be very much appreciated.

Thank you for the wonderful course!

This one was the best course that I have done so far in the deep learning domain. I would recommend this course definitely if you want to learn from the conceptual background of CNN to its application in computer vision.

for me, Andrew's comments were most valuable part of the course.

the exercises are just right for introduction and to encourage learning and progress towards completing the course while not getting bogged down with detail.

The course has a lot of good content and the programming assignments are interesting. The course actually describes the various architectures of CNN's and the reasoning behind them. It still has some video editing issues.

Great overview of basic CNN concepts and history, with pointers to relevant articles.

On the downside the automatic grader for some assignments was not set up correctly, which caused unnecessary time waste and frustration.

Some kinks in the video cutting of Andrew when he makes mistakes, but otherwise very good course. Didn't know anything about convolutions before and am fairly confident in my ability to at least read papers about it now!

My favorite course in the specialization! Each week of lecture builds on the material covered in prior weeks. 8 programming assignments and quizes reinforce what is taught in lecture. Thank you so much to the DLAI team!

The most challenging to date - but clearly expected. This course is fascinating and demonstrates the true power of Deep Learning with respect to things like Facial Recognition and Neural Style Transfer. Amazing stuff!

That's what I came here for! Lots of applications on convolutional neural networks, with many ideas explained. As usual, I wished he would give us a little bit more details, but this is anyway a really brilliant course.

Fantastic course. I found the course material for CNNs and their applications to 1d and 3d models fascinating. The projects were challenging and informative. I am looking forward to the next course with RNNs and LSTMs!

The best course to learn traditional CNNs for absolute beginners. In the mean time, I think adding more recent research on CNN can make this course even better. E.g., vision transformer has been a game changer in CNN.

The best course (at least of the four courses that I have already taken) in the Deep Learning Specialization. The topics are perfectly explained. The only problem is that the final assignment has a bug in the testing.

Like the pervious courses, Convolutional Neural Networks is very useful to get you in touch with the new upcoming neural networks architectures. I particularly enjoyed the last course on triple loss and neural style.

I gained the ability to read and understand research papers after taking this course. I you want to have a good course on Object Detection, Neural Style transfer, I would highly recommend this course.

Thanks Andrew.
