Concurrency in GoUC Irvine As a 20+ years C++ enthusiast, I truly love Golang’s internal concurrency constructs, which are just simply brilliant. The beauty of this course is that the lecture elaborated ‘why we are here’ in addition to just telling you ‘what it is’. The content of this course is not difficult for a…
Functions, Methods, and Interfaces in GoUC Irvine I have been really busy in the past year participating an amazing Kubernetes cloud native storage project. Golang is heavily used in most of the project. I noticed now more and more people are learning it and using it. This is a nice course, causing you sense of beauty and…
Getting Started with GoUC Irvine C, C++, Perl, Python and Matlab have been my good pals for long time, they helped me solve challenging problems in different career stages. Now is good time to embrace a new friend – Golang. My Certificate Related Specialization I am Kesler Zhu, thank you for visiting. Checkout all of…
Google Cloud Platform FundamentalsGoogle Cloud The course is nice, short and easy-peasy. ☕️ You will get familiar with what services and products Google Cloud is offering at a glance. I personally don’t think those Google’s 1-week courses deserve a Coursera certificate – they are way too short. My Certificate Related Specialization I am Kesler Zhu,…
Getting Started with Google Kubernetes EngineGoogle Cloud A very nice mini training from Google teaching you how to use Kubernetes. The lectures are just OK – I always believe they are actually commercial ads. BUT BUT the Qwiklabs (hands-on in real Google cloud platform) are really fantastic impressive and helpful!! My Certificate I am Kesler…
Single Variable CalculusUniversity of Pennsylvania This course is AMAZING! It probably is the BEST Calculus course you can find on the internet. It is also a “marathon” containing 5 parts, 50+ lectures costing me almost 1/2 year to finish all of them. I felt hardness, pain, joy and confidence. I wish I could have this…
Fundamentals of Digital Image and Video ProcessingNorthwestern University This 12-week course is really ALL about math, and definitely an MASTERPIECE! Highly recommend! It is amazing to see how these enabling science and technology have come a long way and constantly reform our life and society. Finishing this course means no more than “touching a tip…
Image and Video ProcessingDuke University This is really a fun course. The boring material is nicely taught in a witty way. Advanced topics “Geometric PDEs” and “Sparse Modeling” – which are very useful to me – demonstrate strong relationship to the ubiquitous Calculus and classic Bayesian methods. Now I know what course shall I learn…
An Introduction to American LawUniversity of Pennsylvania Fantastic course! It helps me understand many basic concepts and principles of U.S. laws in just a few weeks. The course covers topics – tort law, contract law, property law, constitutional law, criminal law and finally, civil procedure – those are exactly what I am interested in. Well,…
Introduction to Deep LearningHigher School of Economics Don’t be misled by the name, it ain’t no way a course for beginners. On the contrary, many *advanced* deep learning topics are included—consolidate your knowledge and get ready for the whole specialization. Programming assignments for Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) and Image Captioning are very impressive. Give it…
Learning How to Learn (with Honors)McMaster University & UC San Diego This interesting and inspiring course is good for everyone. We shall accept the fact that this world (the Matrix?) is eliminating those who can’t keep learning effectively during their lifetime. This course shares many interesting tips and techniques based on research in both education…
Deep Learning SpecializationDeepLearning.AI Mission complete! This is probably the most popular specialization on Coursera. Cutting-edge topics, high quality programming assignments—both newbies and veterans can benefit. I found the knowledge learned can be used directly in daily work and also let me get prepared for the future. Thank you Andrew Ng, much obliged! My Specialization Certificate…
Sequence ModelsDeepLearning.AI When I finished this course, I picked up my phone and asked “Hey Siri, what is sequence model”? Guess what? She understand and she showed me web page of this course exactly. Pretty cool! This course reveals what is under the hood: recurrent neural network, word embedding, beam search, attention model, etc. I…
Writing in the SciencesStanford University This is a course EVERYONE should take—principles, tricks, tips, formats for both scientific publication and lay audiences. Even every punctuation deserves your attention. I like those peer review assignments (write an essay or a prose and get feedback), that is the moment I see creative and beautiful minds, I “inspire…
