About the Course

In the fifth course of the Deep Learning Specialization, you will become familiar with sequence models and their exciting applications such as speech recognition, music synthesis, chatbots, machine translation, natural language processing (NLP), and more. By the end, you will be able to build and train Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and commonly-used variants such as GRUs and LSTMs; apply RNNs to Character-level Language Modeling; gain experience with natural language processing and Word Embeddings; and use HuggingFace tokenizers and transformer models to solve different NLP tasks such as NER and Question Answering. The Deep Learning Specialization is a 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 take the definitive step in the world of AI by helping you gain the knowledge and skills to level up your career....

The course is very good and has taught me the all the important concepts required to build a sequence model. The assignments are also very neatly and precisely designed for the real world application.

The lectures covers lots of SOTA deep learning algorithms and the lectures are well-designed and easy to understand. The programming assignment is really good to enhance the understanding of lectures.

I don't know why this course has not been rated more than the other courses of this specialization. In my opinion, this is the best course among all the others. All thanks to Andrew Sir and Coursera team to introduce me to this specialization.

The course is very helpful in learning the important concepts of RNN in a very easy way. The instructor has a very unique style of teaching which makes the typical concepts easy and at the same the makes you develop your interest in the course.

Andrew Ng and the team have created a fantastic opportunity to learn the basics of Deep Learning Algorithms. "Hearing from Lion's mouth" was a great experience for me. I would strongly recommend any deep learning enthusiast to attend the course.

somewhere between 4 and 5 stars. It's a good course to make you understand about major knowledge to process sequence by DL, and the assignments are the hidden gems.

Some recent results are not included (of course), such as BERT. But it's till OK.

Great course teaching state-of-the art NLP technologies. I wish the attention notebook could be improved, and the projects could get more flexible and in-depth. I also wish there could be a Keras tutorial that gives an overview of the framework.

Andrew Ng is a fantastic instructor. His ability to break down a complicated concept like neural networks and deep learning so that a non-math, non computer person like me actually understands the underlying mechanisms is quite extraordinary.

I think the course and specialization are special. It requires a lot of hours to finish it. It can be a great review of specific topics in the deep learning subject. Thank you for allowing us to reach those specific topics easily. Great content

The course explains the fundamentals of RNNs, GRUs, and LSTMs in a very easy manner with plenty of illustrations and programming exercises. Although, some of the exercises are optional but doing those actually help reinforce essential concepts.

Très intéressant. Les papiers scientifiques illustrés dans les travaux pratiques sont récents et cela fait plaisir de comprendre comment marchent ces réseaux de neurones de notre quotidien (traduction google, trigger word, style transfert, ...)

State-of-the-art and in-depth content, inspiring and engaging lectures throughout the whole specialisation. I will be eternally grateful to all of you who created this (and the other) courses. Thank you, Coursera, thank you so much, Andrew Ng!

Very useful for understanding what 'sequential' means in DL. I expected as some new solution to the time series scenarios but it turns out a different area from the quantative techniques. It might be helpful applied to more 'sequential' areas.

Yes, I have just finished the whole specialization. I'm very proud of myself. And I recommend this specialization to anyone who wants to start with this field. Andrew is the best one I've seen who able to explain the thing in deeper way. Thanx

A wonderful, intellectual experience!

Don't fret if you are having to look up a few documentations, the comprehensive documentations of the built-in functions/layers needed are accessible on the official websites of the libraries(Keras, NumPy).

"I think that every person whether you come from a wealthy family, or a low income family, or anywhere in between. I think everyone should have great opportunities. " (socioeconomic status)

I was shocked by this speech. Thanks to Prof. andrew

The course was brilliant! Even though, the programming assignments could be better (personal opinion). The teaching itself is brilliant, and I think Andrew NG is by far one of the best Deep Learning teachers for anyone looking to get started.

very nice course but bit comprehensive especially Sequence models.

Expecting a same comprehensive course in Python development also so we can not write just a piece of code but entire code.

Also expecting a course on Keras , and end to end one.

More lectures are needed in the sequence models to make these models or ideas clear to deep learning learners. I found this course is the most difficult one to follow in this series even if I got quite a lot experience on time series topics.

It was a great learning experience. Thanks Andrew Ng for the wonderful content. However, there are still some mistakes in the programming assignment such as in the expected output of 3rd assignment. Kindly correct it. Overall very satisfying!

The course is superbly organized and there is a lot of material covered. I recommend it to everyone. However, one has to count with progressively more difficult assingments. Especially the last one on Transformers was really, really tought.

It's an amazing course, the video lectures are fruitful and the contents of the courses are well designed, the instructor is talented and his explanations are extremely helpful, it's one of the best courses taught on keras!

Thank you so much!

Great course! I feel some great accomplishment having finished this specialization I began 2 months ago. This one course could use a bit more of Keras hints or optional Keras course for those who do not have a regular use of the framework.

This course is great if you want to know about sequence models for areas like nlp and speech recognition. They provide assignments that is solvable and their forum is active, and you can always find people solved your confuse on assignments.

The video lectures are awesome. But the project is too fast-paced. I feel I am just following the instruction and keras doc, instead of understanding how keras works. Testing me how to create dict in Python didn't make me feel happy. Thanks!

I think considering the other courses, Sequence Model course was a little bit faster and it covered a lot of topics, so it was a little tough to keep up. But what I learnt was quite a lot and I think it is is quit a very good course indeed.
