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.

Good balance between theory and practice. More detail regarding the format of the data set, how to get data into the right format and loaded into the model will be helpful

The clarity and the simplicity of the instructions in this course makes it a winner. Andrew can take some very complex problems and explain it in a very simplistic manner.

Die vielen Notifications aufgrund von Fehlern in dem folgenden Video haben gestört. Sonst war es ein guter Kurs. 5 Sterne, da das Wissen trotzdem sehr gut aufbereitet ist.

The Deep Learning course by Andrew Ng sir was great , it gave me a very good intuition of building a L-layered Deep neural network from scratch and the way backprop works.

Excellent demonstration of Neural Networks from the ground up. Breaking down the problem into smaller functions eases the understanding. All concepts are conveyed clearly!

very good pace, not too deep, not too shallow, it is left to the student to dig further(math) if they are interested, main ideas and structures are well explained. Thanks!

Really excellently explained. Takes students by the hand and guides through fairly complex stuff, providing some good intuition along the way. I can only highly recommend.

Truly truly amazing experience, I am now confident to take on any Machine Learning conference as I know the backbones of the algorithms implemented. Thank you Sir Andrew !

This course is a great introduction to deep learning mechanisms, and is really useful for starting to develop your own models. Do consider taking the whole specialization.

This course is very useful and makes one's understanding about Neural Networks a lot better. Would recommend everyone who aspires to get into NN to start with this course.

A very good interactive and hands-on way to get experience in building deep neural nets! Would like more derivation and/or techniques on the derivative of multi-layer NNs.

This was a really fun course! However, I feel that not enough emphasis was given on how the derivatives were obtained, which seems like an important part of deep learning.

Some of the exercises are boring, as all the information is in the text or, for example when computing matrices dimensions, they are shown bellow in the assert statements.

it provides very fundamental knowledges, from calculus to basic tools of linear algebra, enabling a beginner who prepare for entering the gate of neural network naturally.

Phenomenal course! Kudos to Andrew Ng for creating something that's even better than the ML course. Python programming is much more intuitive than Octave. Highly recommend

This is very easy to digest. It is hard to fail the practice tests at the end of the sections. I think I have gained a good understanding of how to build a NN on my own.

Wonderfully designed course,i just want few concepts to be added if possible Andrew Sir:Gradient vanishing issue,

effect of number of hidden layer over gradient vanishing .
