Hi @hridoyhasan

This specialization is designed to be accessible even if you’re not deeply familiar with math. For comfort with the course, it’s useful to know some linear algebra (like vectors and matrices), basic calculus (mainly derivatives and gradients), and fundamental probability/statistics.

If you’re new to these topics, you can still succeed by focusing on the course’s practical aspects. If needed, you can review foundational math concepts using resources like Mathematics for Machine Learning Specialization, Khan Academy, 3Blue1Brown, etc.

Hope this helps! Feel free to ask if you need further assistance.
