About the Course

This course will provide you a foundational understanding of machine learning models (logistic regression, multilayer perceptrons, convolutional neural networks, natural language processing, etc.) as well as demonstrate how these models can solve complex problems in a variety of industries, from medical diagnostics to image recognition to text prediction. In addition, we have designed practice exercises that will give you hands-on experience implementing these data science models on data sets. These practice exercises will teach you how to implement machine learning algorithms with PyTorch, open source libraries used by leading tech companies in the machine learning field (e.g., Google, NVIDIA, CocaCola, eBay, Snapchat, Uber and many more)....

I felt that I took the best descition in taking this course, because the professors took this course with atmost clarity and made even the difficult concepts understand easily.

Thank you Professors

This course was good as an introduction course, appropriate analogy is used for facilitating. However, when it comes to assignments, there should have been videos instead of documents for better understanding and answers could be shown afterwards.

Very good course on the basic concepts on machine learning and deep learning. But the main focus is on classification probelms. It would have been more general if the regression problems were also added. But over all a good course.

It was very good. I understand the most of the part what the professors told and was able to learn about what is actually a deep learning is and why machine learning is needed. Hop it help many students through this videos.

I would say this course is a very excellent one. Although, I was not expecting such a comprehensively intensive lectures for an "introduction". Very interesting course, as I now have enough reason to continue learning.

Great fundamentals course! I wish the notebooks were updated according to recent approaches (ie. Tensorflow 2.x, etc). Other than that I'd recommend this course for anyone wanting to have a basic understanding of ML.

I really like the course, I would like if yo can expleine a bit more about initialization funtion and how the learning process is done. I found the labs a bit long so I would suggest to split them between the modul

The exercises are too much toy for people who already have certain knowledge of machine learning and are not feed forward for students that has no experience solving machine learning problems.

A very nice introduction to machine learning. Before this course I always used to think that machine learning is beyond me, but after this I am more confident in machine learning.

Se me dificultó mucho hacer el práctico al punto que sólo lo hice para las primeras dos semanas. Tengo instalado Anaconda y pretendía hacer el práctico en Spyder pero no pude.

A nice introduction to the concepts of machine learning. However, the material between weeks lack coherence (some topics between week 2 and week 3 are a bit repetitive).

It's a great course and helps a lot to understand the concepts behind neural networks. I think it could be improved with more analogies to make the learning easier.

Good course, however I found the first part a bit confusing and the pictures could be improved and increased in number to make the topic easier to understand.

Es necesario tener conocimientos matemático muy avanzados y se necesita más prácticas, adicionalmente se debe tomar en cuenta que no todos somos programadores

O curso é muito bom e concede uma excelente base teórica, porém não tem prática, as vezes chega a ser repetitivo e definitivamente não é para iniciantes.

Its a shame there isnt model answers for the labs as they would be of great help and guidance when stuck, especially since the labs are optional.
