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....

This course helps me to understand the basic concept of Deep Learning. However I think this course should include at least 1 week (or 2-3 videos) about math so learners can have a better understanding

Pretty well organized with really helpful examples and assignment especially. Definitely made the basis for deep learning algorithms. Looking forward to the next modules and dive deep in this domain.

Very good explanations, I'm taking the Deep Learning course at Tsinghua University at the same time and this course is helping me to understand what I don't at class.

A very well-designed introduction! The content spirals, so throughout the class you reinforce the same contents until they are quite understandable. Excellent course.

Excellent course on Deep Learning basics. Andrew makes it easy to understand even if there's some maths involved.

Programming exercises could have been more difficult.

Very good course especially at teaching the theory of DL, though the projects could be in PyTorch instead of Tensorflow because Pytorch is the industry standard now.

I like the way you are training students/scholars/researchers and the tolls you are using like Step-by-Step learning using Notebooks. Assignments, discussion forums.

The low-level knowledge of how neural networks work has been very useful in understanding more complex examples. The ground-up approach taken by the course is novel.
