About the Course

This course introduces deep learning and neural networks with the Keras library. In this course, you’ll be equipped with foundational knowledge and practical skills to build and evaluate deep learning models. You’ll begin this course by gaining foundational knowledge of neural networks, including forward and backpropagation, gradient descent, and activation functions. You will explore the challenges of deep network training, such as the vanishing gradient problem, and learn how to overcome them using techniques like careful activation function selection. The hands-on labs in this course allow you to build regression and classification models, dive into advanced architectures, such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs), recurrent neural networks (RNNs), transformers, and autoencoders, and utilize pretrained models for enhanced performance. The course culminates in a final project where you’ll apply what you’ve learned to create a model that classifies images and generates captions. By the end of the course, you’ll be able to design, implement, and evaluate a variety of deep learning models and be prepared to take your next steps in the field of machine learning....

The course is quite complex for a person who does not have knowledge of algebra, statistics and calculus, the final project was good because it was challenging.

Very good course. If we could have the answers to the projects after submission, that would help a lot. Please see if same if possible. Thanks,

Great material as an introduction to the topic. Perhaps, a bit more about model testing / validation could have just made the course more complete.

Good intro to the subject. The instructor could have done examples using other neural networks like RNN and autoencoders. It was a fantastic intro

It is a good insight for someone to know and understand Deep learning. And exams and projects make sure students learn and practice new concepts.

In-depth concept-analysis is required. Good for people who know the theory and want to learn and revise its implementation in Python.

A nice very short introduction to Deep learning.

The contents itself is very limited but give the learner some taste of DL.

Buona la parte teorica, ma scarsa gradualità dei laboratori si passa da 0 a 1000

why do you ask for verifying my id at the end of the course? That's not fair.
