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.

Andrew did his best to simplify a very complex topic. Still a difficult subject, and it is still a challenge even for folks with programming and calculus experience

provides really good start to enter deep learning field, better if you have already ML course from Andrew Ng but without it you can still follow the course material

Tough final exercise, but well worth the effort. If you don't get it right the first time you can end up doing hours of tedious debugging. Just in real life ... ;-/

Excellent coverage of the basics required to understand how NN's work. Be warned, there's lots of (useful) details to remember. Consider using an actual notebook.

It was a great course. It not only gave me high level understanding of how neural networks work, but also understanding of low level intricacies and implementation.

It's so great for starting Deep Learning. I was familiar with Neural Network (NN) in Matlab, but I could say learn NN now! Because the details were well explained.

Very intuitive course. The concepts were beautifully explained. However some background of calculus and vector algebra can help in getting most out of this course.

I liked Andrew's lectures a lot. Also liked the quizzes. The assignments were great, but felt just a little spoon-fed though. Still, a great course. Worth 5 stars.

I understood all that he taught but still i am unable to develop the intuition of the working of L layer

neural network. Unable to understand why they work so well
