    About the Course

    In previous courses of our online specialization you've learned the basic algorithms, and now you are ready to step into the area of more
    complex problems and algorithms to solve them. Advanced algorithms build upon basic ones and use new ideas. We will start with networks
    flows which are used in more typical applications such as optimal matchings, finding disjoint paths and flight scheduling as well as more
    surprising ones like image segmentation in computer vision. We then proceed to linear programming with applications in optimizing budget
    allocation, portfolio optimization, finding the cheapest diet satisfying all requirements and many others. Next we discuss inhe...

    It's was great to learn advanced algorithms and complexity. Besides, I learn new topics that can help me further learning. All the problems and the lectures were very good.

    As usual, complex arguments explained in simple terms!Some problems are really tough! (e.g. there's a problem from Google Code Jam).Thank you for this course!

    The course left a good overall impression: the contents of the course are excellent and assignments are relevant. I've only noticed 2 downsides: the videos of the first week were sometimes hard to follow and I had to spend some time googling (which I find strange) (however, the situation changes when a Russian guy appears in the third week: his explanations are very clear and precise) and some assignments, in my opinion, take way more time to complete than they should.

    Great course, thank you! My only remark is that it sometimes assumes that you have lots of prior knowledge on programming in my opinion. I'm a non-tech guy trying to increase my knowledge of the field, and I've had a very hard time trying to find additional resources to solve some of the problems and to grasp some of the content. If we could have a bit more color on some of the harder parts during the course it'd be great.

    Courses materials are sufficient and Informative; however, it is really hard to concentrate on videos because of just theoretical parts only. Coding assignments are real world problems with fun and bit complicated. If the videos were more fun and imaginative, I would have completed all coding assignments(guilty).

    Good assignments, however the lectures (especially linear programing) are too short. The lecturers explained the algorithm in a way that only experts in the subject could understand. I didn't understand the lectures at all until i studied from other sources. Not recommended for beginner.

    A great course but really very tough. Every module of the course deserves to be a separate course in itself. One thing that bothered was that the assignments were very vaguely explained and needed lots of searching and self study. Anyways got it after many many months.

    This module is by far the hardest in this specialization, but at the same time, it is rewarding. The only complaint I have is the Linear Programming part. I wish there was more explanation or some toy examples to go through the algorithm.

    A lot of material covered in this course. The assignments are more challenging than in the previous courses of the specialization.

    It is overall a great final and a very complete specialization.

    Thank for putting together all this work.

    Learned a lot. great material. Tough homework

    I appreciated that the grader demanded good implementations but I think it would have been good to have a little guidance as to how to get there.

    The problems are really challenging, thank you! However, the instructor is not very active in the discussion forum, which is a pity when you really need help and get stucked in the problem set.

    Very Educational and Enlightening. The only criticism I have is that the starter files generally need more modification than indicated to create a successful program.

    The only thing I missed in this course (and specialization) was more visual, intuitive approach to explanation. Programming assignments are rewarding.

    after 2 week rest weeks are fun with Alexander S. Kulikov.

    Daniel M kane, does not meet our need.

    But overall this course has many thing to learn.
