Deep Learning Specialization: Advanced AI, Hands on Lab

"This course contains the use of artificial intelligence in creating scripts, visuals, audio, and supporting content"The Deep Learning Specialization: Advanced AI is designed for learners who want to master state-of-the-art deep learning techniques while applying them in practical, hands-on labs every week. This course goes beyond theory — each section includes guided coding labs where you’ll implement algorithms, experiment with models, and solve real-world problems.You’ll begin with the foundations of neural networks, learning about activation functions, loss functions, and optimization techniques, supported by labs that show you how to build and train models from scratch. You’ll then dive into Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), working with classic architectures like LeNet, VGG, and ResNet, and applying them in labs on image classification, object detection, and transfer learning.Next, you’ll explore sequence models, building RNNs, LSTMs, GRUs, and attention mechanisms, with labs on time-series forecasting, text generation, and attention visualizations. Moving into transformers and NLP, you’ll implement self-attention, experiment with mini-transformers, and work with pretrained models like BERT and GPT, plus labs that explore bias and fairness in NLP systems.In the second half, you’ll experiment with generative models through labs on autoencoders, VAEs, GANs, and diffusion models for creative AI applications. You’ll then apply reinforcement learning, coding Q-learning, DQNs, and policy gradient methods to train agents in environments like CartPole. Finally, you’ll tackle deployment, explainability, and ethics,
