This is one hell of an inspiring course that demystified the difficult concepts and math behind PCA. Excellent instructors in imparting the these knowledge with easy-to-understand illustrations.
Relatively tougher than previous two courses in the specialization. I'd suggest giving more time and being patient in pursuit of completing this course and understanding the concepts involved.

•The derivatiion of the PCA in the last week can be broken into 2 weeks with different programming assignments to get a closer and more confident understanding of the PCA method.
By Jean D D S
•I would ask the lecturer to go on more detail on the explanations and do (more) examples.
The lecturer tends to skip a few steps during calculations and demonstrations.
By Dominique D
•The week 2 code was more difficult than the other weeks. The forums are no longer attended by the professors. The access to materials from IC is great.
By Wang Z
•The knowledge introduced in this course is really helpful. However, the programming assignments are very time consuming and not necessarily relevent
By 詹閔翔
•Thank for the excellent course content but i think it would be nice if teacher could do more example or apply than just math formula introduction
By Iurii S
•Decent explanations of PCA idea, but assignments do not provide a clear feedback of what is wrong with the implementation util you get it right.
By bowman
•this is a great course except the assignment has quite a few bugs and the videos are too short and lack many topics, and the quiz are too short

•The First 2 courses of this specialization were very good. I really wish the instructor for this course went into a little more depth.
By Francisco F
•Average quality with low regard for intuition. Content is often Wikipedia pages or references to own content (chapters of own book).
By D. H
•The system is problematic, just take a look those complains in the forum. I also got very frustrated from the last assignment.
By NEHAL J
•The course was highly challenging. I wish some of the explanations were detailed and the assignments had better instructions.
By DHRUV M
•Course is very high level. many concepts were not understood especially in the last course. Assignments were many confusing.
By Ana P A
•The professor of other two a way better. This one skips some steps in some explanation that makes the tasks hard to do
By Chuwei L
•worse than previous courses of machine learning specialization. Really confused me when introduced the inner products.
By SYED H
•The course needs to introduce more advanced technique and practical examples or create a new Advanced course on this

•Honestly this course is the one worthing attempting. However, last week's content is really messy and challenging.
By Hsueh-han W
•many steps are not clear enough that I have to spend a lot of additional time to figure out the details.
By Saurabh M
•This course is pretty hard. The most important pre-requisite for this course is persistence.
By Gurudu S R
•Tutor is not clear and concise on the concepts. Need more examples for Week 2 and Week 3.
By Vishesh K
•Good Content but isnt't explained well. if you are motivated by yourself then go for it.
By Sagun P S
•Tough one if you are new to programming or doesn't have excellent understanding of Maths
By Keng C C
•explanations are not clear, need to refer to lots of youtube to catch up with course.
By Matan A
•The is a lot of gap from what the lecturer learn and what the assignments requires.
By Yuxuan W
•Always spending much more time on coding than needed. Same result but no credit :(
By Sethu N O G
•faculty must improve his teaching techniques.
I found the course less interesting
