Course Description
This course is designed to provide a complete introduction to Deep Learning. It is aimed at beginners and intermediate programmers and data scientists who are familiar with Python and want to understand and apply Deep Learning techniques to a variety of problems.
We start with a review of Deep Learning applications and a recap of Machine Learning tools and techniques. Then we introduce Artificial Neural Networks and explain how they are trained to solve Regression and Classification problems.
Over the rest of the course we introduce and explain several architectures including Fully Connected, Convolutional and Recurrent Neural Networks, and for each of these we explain both the theory and give plenty of example applications.
This course is a good balance between theory and practice. We don't shy away from explaining mathematical details and at the same time we provide exercises and sample code to apply what you've just learned.
The goal is to provide students with a strong foundation, not just theory, not just scripting, but both. At the end of the course you'll be able to recognize which problems can be solved with Deep Learning, you'll be able to design and train a variety of Neural Network models and you'll be able to use cloud computing to speed up training and improve your model's performance.

The name of this course is wrong... it should be "introduction on artificial intelligence" Very few and irrelevant information about Keras or Tensorflow.

The course is pretty good and usefull. Tnx a lot

This course is an excellent tool to assist me to learn deep learning

I opted for the course based on the ratings it had. Turns out, this is at max an average course on deep learning. The trainer has tried really hard to explain concepts but they don't go with real world and he doesn't give any background on the concepts. He has taught this course as like reading from any manual without having any real world experience. I'd highly recommend to look for other course on the topic.

A lot of new material, has to stay very focused to be able to follow all the steps. Fortunately, the course leaves room for my own way of learning. The subtitles of a video are sometimes disturbing with language errors.
Tensor flow playground helped to make a neural network less abstract and more transparent.

It was a really good experience. A very well explained each and everything for a novice person to learn Deep Learning using Keras.

Buena eleccin, hacen faltan unas lecciones.
By Can Ozay on 7/22/2020
yes, good and informative. more details would be better but a bit early conclusion at this point and still needs to go with next 95 videos
By Matthew Afsahi on 7/22/2020
I have got this course because I thought Jose will be teaching this course as he is very good at teaching and explaining the materials, unfortunately this course was not that useful for me and my learning progress.
By Viktor Semenov on 7/11/2020
Very nice course. Well designed and very well thought. I would put 5 star, but the course a little bit not finished
By Guilherme Mendona Freire on 7/9/2020
Nice. So far.
By Ryan Keck on 7/9/2020
The material of the course was pretty good. However, it doesn't look like questions have been answered by the instructor in the last year. The course also seems kind of unfinished. A few of the solutions do not have videos at the end, it just says "coming soon" or something.
Regarding the exercises, I'm a little bit torn. I wish they were a little bit more specific, since I'm mostly just trying to get an understanding of the code and how to make things run. That being said, if you've never had to fiddle with things to make them work, the exercises will be a painful but worthwhile experience. Essentially, the exercises are probably a lot closer to what you'll see in the real world. Most other courses hold your hand through the exercises, but not here. This is probably not a good first course in machine learning, but if you've gone through another course or two, this should add on to the foundation really well. The course has things I didn't see in other courses. I highly recommend looking at the course at some point, but I would wait for a sale or something, I can't recommend at full price.
