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....

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.

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

Great online course, much recommended. The assignments might be more difficult and challenging, that would lead to a better perception of the underlying principles.

L-layered Neural Network Programming in Python is endearing. Will be working further on it to get an in-depth understanding of things I've learned from this course.

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.
