The course is created by Deeplearning.ai in partnership with Coursera. Anyone who wants to gain skills like Machine learning, TensorFlow, computer vision & deep learning must consider looking. Read this post in full to see what do learners get from this course and current stats of it.

More about this Intro to TensorFlow Course:

This is one of the highly rated Coursera courses at the moment. Learners can enroll in the course anytime they want, the whole content is 100% online. There is no need to attend classes in person whatsoever. Just choose your schedules and start learning!

If you can spare 4–5 hours every week, you can finish the course in just 4 weeks. Again, there are no deadlines, learners can finish the course before 4 weeks as well 🙂

This is a 4 weeks program, following are the topics covered each week and what you learn:

Week 1. A New Programming Paradigm

In first week you get to know what is Machine Learning, Deep Learning and how they offer a new programming paradigm. This section consists of 4 videos, 5 readings and 3 quizzes

Week 2. Introduction to Computer Vision

This section of the course should complete in 4 hours. You will learn from 7 videos, 6 readings and 3 quizzes in this section. You will learn to solve problems of computer vision with just a few lines of code in this section of the course

Week 3. Enhancing Vision with Convolutional Neural Networks

This section consists of 6 videos, 6 readings and 3 quizzes, it should take you about 5 hours to go through the entire content.

Week 4. Using Real-world Images

This section of the course should finish in about 6 hours. Learners get 9 videos, 10 readings and 3 quizzes this week.
