Cant express how thankful I am to Andrew Ng, literally thought me from start to finish when my school didnt touch about it, learn a lot and decided to use my knowledge and apply to real world projects

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.

The Sequence Models course was the one I sought out in the deep learning specialization. Very interesting assignments, e.g. neural machine translation, music composition, etc. - much more interesting than the convolutional network models, in my opinion. However, it is also much more difficult to follow; probably the most difficult one of the five courses.
Prof. Ng did a wonderful job in the delivering the materials, as always. However, I expected a lot more details about the sequence models, and recurrent networks as much as the ones given in the previous courses. I was looking forward to learn more in-depth about this model, but I didn't feel I get all that I wanted. For example, I wish there an example, step-by-step walkthrough of the backpropagation through time (BPTT) algorithm, especially for the LSTM and GRU models.
The assignments were a little more difficult to follow, I think. To me, the instructions were not as clear as the previous courses (in my opinion), especially when using Keras objects/layers - "use this *object/layer*" but it wasn't clear whether or not to fiddle with the arguments. Usually when it does require a specific value for the argument (e.g. axis=x), it will be mentioned either in the text or code comments. I guess it's a good challenge, but I find myself doing more trial-and-error with the coding to get it to work instead of having some guidance on how to use those Keras objects/layers. The discussion forums do help, however. Lastly, some of the assignments involved building a recurrent model using Keras layers, I felt like there was not enough explanation why such architecture, layers, or hyperparameter values were chosen.
Overall, I liked the course, I did learn a lot from the course, and enjoyed the models we get to play with in the assignments. I think I will still run into problems trying to devise my own sequence models, and fumble with Keras. I wish there is a more in-depth course on the sequence model. Prof. Ng's delivery was excellent; I enjoyed listening to every one of his lectures (even at 2x speed) :)
Thank you to Prof. Ng, and all the people who worked hard to develop the course.
