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.

Great course. It helps me understand the overall concepts of Deep Learning and Neural Networks. It also provides the hands-on experience on implementing the concepts to a usable solution.

Very good and mathematically-rigorous course on neural networks.

Please provide bibliographical references for the people who want to have a more mathematically-precise proof of backprop.

This is the best neural networks and deep learning course I've done until now. Prof. Andy has explained the required concepts in a very simple way thus implementing the code is very easy.

Before I took this course, I thought deep learning would require intensive amount of math. Obviously, that's not true. I was able to follow the lectures and finish the assignments easily.

s the perfect balance between theory and practice to create a baseline knowledge for the NN and Deep Learning. Definitely, I will continue with the rest courses of this specialization.

I would recommend completing the "Machine Learning" course first before delving into this.

Otherwise, great introductory course where everything was laid out nicely and totally made sense!

Great course overall! Learned a ton.

Please give us some recommendations of interesting problems and some free, labeled dataset available online so that we could try things out ourselves.

C'est un très bon cous ça m'a vraiment aidé à bien comprendre la théorie derrière les réseaux de neurones . La façon comment le professeur Andrew Ng explique est géniale Je recommande !!

This is a great overview, but fairly superficial. I hope that future courses will build on this one. So giving 5 stars for now, but need to see the rest of the courses to know for sure.

Very thorough explanation and relatively easy assignments providing most of the required work. Should be easy even for beginners and will give you a deep understanding of neural networks.

Thank you for the course. Amazed at how Andrew Ng and team start by assuming near-zero prior knowledge and connect so well with such a diverse audience. Assignments were well crafted too.

Awesome course! Concepts are clearly explained and easy to follow. I recommend taking Andrew Ng's "Machine Learning" course before this, since it covers most of the basics in more detail.

It is an excellent blueprint for understanding the core AI Constructs of basic Neural Mechanics. It is like taking an neural engine apart seeing how it works and putting it back together

Fantastic Job Andrew.I really loved your course.I started course with zero knowledge on NN ,now I gained complete NN background and I can implement my own NN right from scratch.

Thank you

Perfect for beginners with basic knowledge of algebra and calculus. Andrew NG is hands down one of the best educators I've come across and he explains the relevant math in a neat manner.
