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....

Amazing course, the lecturer breaks makes it very simple and quizzes, assignments were very helpful to ensure your understanding of the content. Hope for future learners you provide code model-answers

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

I really enjoyed this course. The programming assignments were just challenging enough that you needed to understand the deep learning concepts but without needing to know a lot python.

Excellent course with very instructive programming assignments. The assignments do now require the installation of separate code. Everything is included within the Coursera environment.

An excellent introductory course to Deep Learning and Neural Network, very beginner-friendly, especially to people from a different background who has little math and coding experience.

Nice format for learning. I like the overall template of videos, with exercises, and the Jupyter notebooks makes the learning less about programming and more about building the model.

You'll learn supervised learning (basically binary classification in this course. You'll have a chance to implement what you've learned into several projects. Recommended for beginners!

Very good course, Andrew Ng does his best to explain things in details and in such a way that anyone can understand, I can't wait to get my hands on his next courses in this specialty !

Awesome course! even for those that are beginning in ML & DL. Andrew explain the concepts easily and the practical sections are also great stuff. I'll try to complete the whole program.

Loved the derivations as well as the intuitive explanations. Relatively easy assignments (w.r.t dataset used) but excellent coverage of foundations of neural networks and deep learning.

Genuinely inspiring course. If you told me I'd be able to implement my own deep neural networks by the end of this 4 week course I wouldn't have believed you - but that is what you get.

Andrew does a great job explaining the concepts and formulas. Assignments are setup to have you focus on what you need to learn. The bonus videos are a great complement to the course.

Really useful, with an step by step methodology, that keeps it really clear from the ground up.

The best: explanations from professor Ng. I wish I could find more like him in university.

This was a very good start since I knew little about machine learning concepts but knew nothing about Deep learning. It would be more helpful if I can get more programming assignments:)

very good course

i like they way Andrew proposed the ideas

i m excited to accomplish the other courses :)

i wish that Andrew was my teach in university

he makes everything looks simple !

Outstanding explanation on backprop, although I've been playing with DL for a while, revisiting the concepts at such a low level was awesome, and very enlightening. Totally recommended!

Intermediate level course for those who know the basics of python and a bit of Machine Learning. Now I know how these algorithms work and now i can dive into some advanced level courses

Very good introduction to basics to Neural Nets. The course doesn't go deep on the theory but more on practice. Recommend reading the Deep Learning book (Chap. 6) along with the course.

great intro to deep learning, the jupyter notebook was super easy to setup and the assignments did a nice job of focusing on key concepts, not just the bookkeeping of python programming

This course builds very strong foundation of deep learning . For entire month you would be Learning about Forward prop and back prop but in a way you won't find any where on the net !!!

I took the Machine Learning course by Andrew, but going through this first course of the Specialization, I grasped a lot more and understood many concepts more clearly. Thanks Andrew :)

Just started week 2.

This course is going to be a game changer with respect brining deep learning to the largest audience and possible create an army of practitioners, researchers, etc.
