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....

A bit easy (python wise) but maybe that's just a reflection of personal experience / practice. The contest is easy to digest (week to week) and the intuitions are well thought of in their explanation.

This is a very good course for people who want to get started with neural networks. Andrew did a great job explaining the math behind the scenes. Assignments are well-designed too. Highly recommended.

Very useful course and well taught !!!

One remark afterwards :

- Should have been interesting to see differences between PY built-in functions (from SKlearn) and our functions.

Just excellent course. So comprehensive understanding of NN and its internal working. The assignments are worth doing in order to get insight into how Neural Networks function

I sincerely appreciate Andrew's contribution. I have used Keras before while this is the first time I know what is activation='relu' behind the scene. Very impressive! Thanks!

Thank you for allowing me to take my time to go through the rigour of this course. Though I might remember how it works now I am sure I can apply it when I see the challenges.

Nice course. Learned a lot of theory and put it into practice with good code examples. Nice that it's also self sufficient and doesn't rely on other systems or cloud services.

This course helps me have a basic understanding of neural networks, e.g, how they works and their applications in binary classifications (cat vs non-cat). Thank you very much!

Really good course. Starts right from the basics and there are no pre-requisites. Those from the non-technical background can also understand and implement the concepts easily

It's a great course to develop an understanding of Deep Learning. I would suggest completing the Machine Learning by Stanford taught by Andrew Ng first. Excited to learn more.

It was really a great and imperative course. Timely modified modules like dnn_utils are very helpful to understand and make necessary correction to our codes when it's needed.

Easy to follow! Great balance between making the course content just deep enough (in terms of theory) while also maintaining practicability in the form of "tangible" examples.

Very detailed and hands-on introduction course into Neural Networks and Deep Learning. Prior Python and statistics/algebra knowledge is very helpful to get started right away.

The Best course to get started, Building deep neural networks from scratch gives a better understanding of how neural nets work. Also Andrew Ng teaches the concepts very well.

Easy to follow. The course ignores the Python knowledges in the first place and focus on NN, then it gives you many chances to learn the needed Python skills with assignments.

Wonderful Course! I learnt a lot from it, and understood exactly many concepts and processes about ML and DL that I didn't know before. It's indeed worthy your time and money!
