Professors first time teaching and he was actually a great lecturer, seemed very passionate about the material. He also really wants his students to succeed. The exams were super easy as they were exactly like homework and exam review questions. He also provided a lot of resources and review sessions. Highly recommend.

Cares a lot about students. In my opinion I really liked the last two weeks when he covered transformers, but, and this also has to do with the department, but thought a lot of the content covered was very useless in terms of industry e.g. midterm covered math topics way too heavily. Also OH were structured terribly they were all on one day of week

Professor Guo is a wonderful instructor. He really knows how to teach! Although deep learning is a challenging topic, he can always make it easy to understand and teach it in simple way. He is very patient and will not skip any step to make sure you fully understand the concepts. I really learnt a lot from his lectures!

He cares about students learning material, not giving them bad grades. His exams are very fair, he will give you a practice test that will be very good indicator of exam material. I learned a lot in his class and was not stressed about exams. His homeworks are also very clear. You can learn at your own pace using the slides if you want.
