Very good overview of ML. The GraphLab api wasn't that bad, and also it was very wise of the instructors to allow the use of other ML packages. Overall i enjoyed it very much and also leaned very much

Great course! Emily and Carlos teach this class in a very interest way. They try to let student understand machine learning by some case study. That worked well on me. I like this course very much.

Very good explanations and well-thought out assignments and practical exploration. The usage of the proprietary GraphLab software was a minus, but since it was used just for exploratory purposes, no harm done.

This course was very usefull tome as it was implemented in a way that it's easy to understand the core of the module and the subject.
I understand and it prepared me for the rest of the Machine Learning courses

This was a great intro course to the topic, and the instructors both make complicated concepts accessible. For example, the explanation of non-linear features in deep learning is extremely clear and intuitive.

To define how machines can learn, we need to define what we mean by “learning.” In everyday parlance, when we say learning, we mean something like “gaining knowledge by studying, experience, or being taught.”

Pretty Cool as Foundations in ML!!! If you already have expertize on Pandas and python you would find this course as a good entry point for Machine Learning as the point of view is 50/50 theorical/practice.

I appreciate the effort you kept for this online course.Actually I enjoyed learning here.But you can be little bit more detailed in the ipython notebook code explanation. Otherwise ,this is the best course .

I had to use TuriCreate instead of GraphLab, so other than the changes in the libraries that had me guessing which function to use, everything in this course is well structured and concrete. Thank you all!

Actually, this course is the best introduction for machine learning for me .
it gives me a outline of machine learning structure . thankful , and i will continue learn other courses in this whole course .

A real breathtaking great course about the basics of machine learning with very concise materials. Unfortunately died after four parts. I'am hoping for resurrection with a part 5 and 6.
Thank you very much.

Very good approach. Let students hands on and play with ML model first, before jumping into details. In real life, understanding use cases is really important before investigating more time into theories.

I really liked the case study approach. It starts from real life examples and shows you how simple it is to make your own models and predictions which really lures you into the machine learning concept.

A good course for getting a rough idea of what machine learning is, and what its applications are.
The course provides the basic knowledge for the specialization course. Overall I enjoyed it thoroughly.
