Reviews of professor Jie Shen

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
A midterm and a final thats all you have to show your understanding. Good luck trying to understand his notes, hes a nice professor but he is not curving grades. No office hours or TA office hours!

He's a really good professor, his course is quite tough and even his voice is quite low but he's very helpful. If you don't understand a topic in his class then you can meet him during his office hours and he is always ready to teach you. And even he's grading is good.

If you choose his class, you must have a strong math background. Fortunately, he typically offers a curve.

Research oriented course. Not for beginners. Most of the lectures will give you deep understanding of machine learning algorithms.

This course is 100% Math class. No any code assignment. It has quiz, exam and notes. The lecture is very hard. You cannot understand unless you have stronger math and machine learning background.
