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....

The best and simplest neural network course i have come across. Andrew Ng makes the mathematical concepts subtle and understandle. Neural network for me is no longer a black box.Thank you Andrew Ng

Lot of courses teach theory and uses python in built libraries. This is the only course learners are encourage to built the algorithm from scratch to gain more understanding of things under the hood.

I am thankful to the Prof. Andrew Ng and Coursera to provide this online learning platform to the learners like me. I like this course and the way Prof. Andrew Ng explained the Neural Network concept profoundly.

Clears all the basics and very conceptual. So good for those who wanna dive deep into neural networks. The graded assignments were awesome, where one builds neural network from scratch. Overall a nice experience.

This was recommended to me by a colleague, and I was not at all disappointed. Top-notch course, I learned a lot and had a fun time working through the programming labs. I will definitely recommend this to others.

Very good introduction to neural networks. The teacher takes his time to clearly explain the mathematical background and the coding - including many repetition which are needed for this topic. Highly recommended.

Great course, to the point and with enough detail to keep you interested and not discourage.

Also, the interviews with Deep Learning professionals keep you motivated and are very interesting.

Great job, keep it up!

Great Course. Concepts like Back Propagation are taught in a very simplified manner. Great exercises give you confidence on how NN functions internally, instead of just using them as a black box. Much recommended

Excelente curso, construção de redes neurais desde sua base e dicas de melhores práticas.

Algumas legendas estão erradas ou dessincronizadas mas ainda assim é possível entender.

Ainda sem tradução para o Português.

I took his course about Machine Learning about 3 years ago It was really helpful to understand ML. This course is much improved not only in the content itself but also the coding exercise. Thank you Prof. Andrew!

I feel like the practice have too much guide, so than u can write the right the line of code without really undestand the concepts. I think let optional hints could be better than put everthing from te beggining

The course is really amazing and its well structured. With a background in Mechanical Engineering and no prior knowledge , I learned alot and I am now all confident to build and train deep layer neural networks.

Exceptional material and organization. This is not a critque of the course. The python libraries and mixing of properties and OO approaches with programming conventions makes one wish there was something better.

This lectures gave me the skill to implement neural networks from scratch. Since we covered in depth how neural networks and deep neural networks work, we can adapt this theory to any other programming language.

I found the course very useful and informative. I am looking forward to learning the second course!

Thank you very much for making all students in the world can touch closely to Deep Learning's wonderful World!!

That was one of the the most beneficial course, I have ever taken.

Sir Andrew NG,

All students who are enthusiastic Data Science and be unable to reach good education,

appreciate to you!

Thanks for all!

Best Regards

The assignments are really well designed! Even though I've already taken a deep learning class at my university and I'm a teaching assistant of the deep learning course, refreshing this knowledge is always good.

Un curso muy bueno, la metodología implementada facilita la adquisición de conocimientos y motiva a seguir aprendiendo. la sección de tareas ayuda mucho a entender los conceptos teóricos mostrados en los vídeos.

everything's fine!

But it will be better if you teach some more basics regarding programming in the beginning itself.So it will be easier for the students who are not so good at corresponding programming platform

I think this is the best course to get a proper understanding of deep learning and neural networks. Everything was explained with clarity so that there wasn't any doubt. Thank you Andrew Ng and the Coursera Team

Every course from Andrew is great. I really appreciated the new format versus the older version of the course: having several modules instead of a unique course is more manageable especially for professionals...

An extremely good approach to the neural networks. I started to deep learning with this course and I understood the mechanic lying under it thanks to professor Andrew Ng. Thanks a lot for giving us this lecture.

It was a fantastic course. It takes up one topic and explains as much possible as in 4 weeks. It has thrown light to minute details that we normally oversee. It really helped strengthen my Neural network Skills.
