Learner Reviews & Feedback for Machine Learning: Clustering & Retrieval by University of Washington
About the Course
What is the right notion of similarity? Moreover, what if there are millions of other documents? Each time you want to a retrieve a new
document, do you need to search through all other documents? How do you group similar documents together? How do you discover new,
emerging topics that the documents cover? In this third case study, finding similar documents, you will examine similarity-based algorithms
for retrieval. In this course, you will also examine structured representations for describing the documents in the corpus, incl...

excellent material! It would be nice, however, to mention some reading material, books or articles, for those interested in the details and the theories behind the concepts presented in the course.

Great course, all the explanations are so good and well explained in the slides. Programming assignments are pretty challenging, but give really good insight into the algorithms!.Thanks!

Good and deep dive into ML!
Absolutely disappointed that the course was delayed and the promise to take it through Course 5 and Capstone Project didn't come through.
Not at all happy with that!!

This was a really good course, It made me familiar with many tools and techniques used in ML. With this in hand I will be able to go out there and explore and understand things much better.

This course was my first encounter with Machine Learning! The course gave me a good understanding of the different ML algorithms used in clustering and retrieval of data!

Overall is great. The LDA and Dendrograms lack quality/specificity and depth of the previous topics. So sad the Specialization collapsed at 4 courses instead of 6.

As explicações poderiam ser um pouco mais detalhadas neste curto. Tive certa dificuldade em alguns conceitos apresentados, mais do que nos outros cursos.

I'm disappointed that courses 5 and 6 of the specialization were cancelled. The cancelled capstone was why I purchased this specialization package.

This topic was very deep and I learnt many complex algos. Would suggest to have some more examples for the algorithms presented in this modules.

Very good course. Too long interval between modules make hard for non-Python developers. Easy to forget some of the Python structures.

Great course on machine learning, however, left us in middle of learning, Recommender System + Deep Learning Capstone is missing

Good course overall.
Starting to get more on the side of being mostly implemented and only needing to insert a line or two.

At some topics more explaination (eg. Map reduce and LDA) needed although as a whole it is good course.

More detail on theory behind LDA and HMMs would have been useful. Otherwise, another brilliant course!

Although the concept is good, datasets and code in assignments are modified and give strange result

Good survey of the material, but assignments are superficial and don't test thorough understanding.

Great course. Some week were tough others too easy, but general a very interesting course.

The last weeks, we went through the material a little bit too fast.
