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....

Andrew Ng's presenting style is excellent. Makes the course easy to follow as it gradually moves from the basics to more advanced topics, building gradually. Very good starter course on deep learning.

It's really quite an amazing course where we get to learn the mathematics behind the Neural Networks. It is great to learn such core basics which will help us further in developing our own algorithms.

A great course. Learned backpropagation in great detail and this has set me up very well for the later courses of the specialization. Furthermore, it has given me some industry level knowledge as well.

I personally suggest this course to my friends since it give as a new look on machine learning through deep learning implementation . And also through the programming test we can learn more on that too

Course is well designed. Teacher delivered very well and i liked the good environment of appreciation by teacher. I think every teacher has his/her own way of teaching but Andrew ng is one of the best.

The first course is a great step to start learning DL, but after completing the first course of deep learning there should be some guidance about, how to get to the second course of the specialization.

Painful and tedious, but extremely well thought out and structured. I complained a bit during the course. But it was the only way to learn NN in a non-black-boxy way. I look forward to the next course!

A really excellent intruction to neural networks. If you have completed the "Machine Learning" course led by Dr. Ng, this course is also a helpful review for the neural networks section of that course.

As expected, Andrew Ng and his team have done an excellent job explaining NN and getting our hands dirty but this time with python (woohoo) and excellent jupyter notebooks! Thank you for coming back :)

Excellent introduction to Deep Learning. The most important lesson learned was the building of the mathematical components of a deep neural networks, from a simple node up to an n-layer neural network.

Very nice course with detailed guides. This helped clear some major confusion for me in neural network. Especially the exercises on matrix dimensions, and actual coding of FP and BP. Highly recommended

Very clear and straight forward explanations for the video lectures. Great ipython notebook materials! If you have master some machine learning basics, you should be able to learn this 1st course fast!

Never think and listen to people who says you cannot learn science without math degree. This course proves opposite of your abilities to know hard coded science formulas with none math knowledge! :)

The notation and the description of the course materials are way more comprehensible than that of the ML course. I deeply appreciate all the efforts made so that this course could be presented to us.

I understand forward and backward propagation much better - having done it a lot in the notebooks multiple times. And I have better knowledge of which activation functions to use and when. Thank-you!

it really helps a lot and gives me some insight in neural networks. The math problems also help me to do lots of reviews on the past materials. Look forward to next courses, thanks Andrew and Coursera

I was actually a kind of half cooked in neural network. Thanks to Dr.Adnrew for his wonderful explanation, I am directly going to register for convolution neural network as I gained enough confidence

learned many things but this was hard for me that's why it took more time than normal i would say this is good to start your learning in deep learning it is difficult but with hardwork you can do it.

The course is really good for beginners. It builds up the concepts from the basics and also gives a pretty good understanding of the maths behind the algorithms. Andrew Ng is the best teacher period.

Lot of courses teach theory and uses python in built libraries. This is the only course learners are encourage to built the algorithm from scratch to gain more understanding of things under the hood.
