About this course: If you want to break into cutting-edge AI, this course will help you do so. Deep learning engineers are highly sought after, and mastering deep learning will give you numerous new career opportunities. Deep learning is also a new "superpower" that will let you build AI systems that just weren't possible a few years ago. In this course, you will learn the foundations of deep learning. When you finish this class, you will: - Understand the major technology trends driving Deep Learning - Be able to build, train and apply fully connected deep neural networks - Know how to implement efficient (vectorized) neural networks - Understand the key parameters in a neural network's architecture This course also teaches you how Deep Learning actually works, rather than presenting only a cursory or surface-level description. So after completing it, you will be able to apply deep learning to a your own applications. If you are looking for a job in AI, after this course you will also be able to answer basic interview questions. This is the first course of the Deep Learning Specialization.
Who is this class for: Prerequisites: Expected: - Programming: Basic Python programming skills, with the capability to work effectively with data structures. Recommended: - Mathematics: Matrix vector operations and notation. - Machine Learning: Understanding how to frame a machine learning problem, including how data is represented will be beneficial. If you have taken my Machine Learning Course here, you have much more than the needed level of knowledge.

Very good course! Andrew has the magic to convey complex ideas in a straightforward and easily understandable way. Also smooth learning the courser provided. Homework is great, although I would argue that it could be more challenge and thus more interesting.
Lectures by Andrew Ng are excellent = 5 stars
Programming assignements: room for improvement. At least once they use inconsistent nomenclature. And they leave no room for learning-by-doing, as it is mostly required to copy text/code from a few lines above into Phyton format.
I am still very exicted to move on to next course in the series.
Always pleasure to take a course of Andrew NG, He is a great instructor and taught very well now, I have to implement by learning in my on-going Deep Learning Project. Hopefully well complete all 5 courses of deeplearning.ai.
