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....

Very informative course by Andrew Ng and team.Teaches everything from the basics and helps you understand difficult topics (as i thought before taking this course) such as Deep Neural Networks easily.

Very well structured lectures and nicely prepared programming assignments.

Information and insight beyond formulae were greatly appreciated, especially the interviews with leading researchers and practitioners from the AI field.

A great course indeed! Although I had worked with deep networks before, I did not know behind the screen operations and calculations. This has enabled me to see the whole concept in a completely different perspective. Thank You

It was a good course only Issue I faced in Week 4 Assignment. Where 2 functions even though my code is correct function "linear_activation_forward" & "linear_activation_backward" I am getting error as shapes were not matching.

At first I thought the course was too basic. However, after completing the course I realized that's not the case. I think the content is just organized and delivered so well that it makes it appear more basic than it really is.

Excellent introductory course to Neural Networks and Deep Learning. Great learning material, good balance between theory and piratical exercises. The applications are very well-thought and promote student engagement. Well done!

Highly recommended! The course takes you from a beginner to building your own cat image recognizer using deep learning. If you want to start learning about neural networks and deep learning, then this is a great place to start.

Verywell structured and verywell delivered Course on Deep Learning basics. Challenging and fun. Such a pleasure in studying a complicated subject like DL and is because of professors like Andrew. Continuing with the 2nd Course.

I liked this course as a follow up from the intro to Machine learning course. Using Python was also really nice, and I loved the organization and development of the course.

Excited to take the next courses in this specialization

The course is very well excuted and Andrew has an impressive skil in oversimplifying the concepts to the point that everything feels very natural and intuitive :)

I highly appreciated the hand on experience of the assignments

Good combination of the math fundamentals necessary to understand deep learning along with practical programming implementations. Assignments are very close to those given in graduate-level introductory deep learning classes.

Great course! Lectures have the right level of details (even though they could point to more external/additional material), the assignments are clear and well explained. This first step of the DL specialization was a pleasure!

"Neural Networks : Demystified"

Great for those seeking to gain a foundational intuitive understanding of the Neural Network development process model.

Thank you Deeplearning.ai and Coursera for this beautifully designed course!

Best course to start off with. Best tutor as well he explained everything in detail and he added lot more things like how to code efficiently etc. I would recommend this to any one who is going to start ML and neural networks.

The courses of this specialization are of great value. Thank you very much!.

For how long will I have access to the course's materials now that I finished my paid specialization?

Thank you,

This is a very good cause and hope it is much better that you can add more details about optimizations including decent directions and unconstrained opti method which will make clear more about the cost function optimization.

An excellent course covering the underlining logic of neural networks. Essential if you wanted a deeper understanding of what happens during mode.fit and model.predict and to improve your intuition for deep learning in general

The course teaches you how to build a neural network from scratch, which you can not find in a lot of machine learning course anywhere else. This bottom-up approach lays down the groundwork to build up more complicated models.

It was incredible, yeah there are some maths, matrixes thus through me bit off but the optional videos and beautiful community made me through the course... I love the continuity from week1 to week4... One Down 4 more to GO :)

to be honest i didn't even knew the python language and still i attempted this course ! and surprisingly not only i can code in python but also have a good knowledge of neural networks and deep learning <3

Thank You very much !

This is by far the best course available.Although some concepts could have been a little bit better, but the way Andrew Ng made the topics simpler is just awesome.Thanks to the whole community for making this beautiful course.

Good introduction to the basic concepts in Deep Learning. Liked the idea of implementing everything from scratch instead of only depending on existing implementations (eg keras). This helps a lot to get a deep understanding :)

The course are organised systematically, the knowledge points are very specific and explained clearly. Most helpful is the ideas of Neural Networks and Deep Learning are going deeper step by step. I like the "take away" part.

I liked this course. It has a nice balance between simplicity and completness of material. It has a lot of math but at the same time it is explained like I am five. Excellent way to understand the logic behind neural networks.

Amazing course by Mr Andrew NG , I took his ML course as well this was amazing , especially notebooks being already having libraries and environment installed is amazing get go even able to do on work from browser is godsend.
