difficult to understand
However, at times, it can be very difficult to understand what he is saying.
The professor was knowledgeable, but was difficult to understand and spoke quickly.

neural network
How do I predict an outcome with a Tree or Neural Network?
Other advance predictive models like trees, random forest, neural networks are covered fast.
However, I never was able to get the right answer on any neural network boosting or bagging questions on any quiz, though I got all the other questions right - creating decision trees or logistic regression models through XLMiner, even boosting/bagging decision tree models, both Classify and Predict.
I finally got through the class because getting everything right except neural network boosting/bagging questions enabled me to squeak through with a passing score.
My only suggestion is to improve the quality of the neural network content, in my opinion, the very one too shallow compared with the rest of the excellent content.
The course is very stimulating, unfortunately (at least for a non native english speaker) the understanding of the professor's words is tough Got to many techniques like boosting, bagging, Neural networks, regression tress etc..

very hard
Professor's english very hard to follow.
However, the answers of the quiz are also sometimes not correct.I wish this course is thoroughly revised with some other instructor as it is very hard to understand with the present Instructor.The forum is also completely unresponsive.Please update this course.
It was also very hard to catch what he was saying as his voice was not clear and no slides were provided.

at times
The instructor's poor English makes it difficult to follow the lectures and it takes twice the time to study the transcript, which is also wrong at times.
This is reflected at times when reading the transcript below each video.
excel add-in
The course also requires paying $25 for an Excel Add-In, which was not mentioned before enrolling in the course.
The Excel Add-In is a different version from the version used in the video, so it was very difficult to follow along because the screens and outputs were different.
