I know a Kaggle Grandmaster very well and as far as I have observed his work I have found that they have a lot of experience and practice of many algorithms. They know algorithms upside down and inside out. They have very interesting approaches to decrease the test error. Another grandmaster I closely follow is famous to present elegant simple solutions to very sophisticated problems. A lot of people were using Deep learning and NN and what not but he won the competition with 1st place and his solution had very simplistic application of linear regression with some advance regularization. Feature engineering is a step in multi step process to get the best model. </p>\n\n<p>There is a kernel on feature engineering for this competition see <a href=\"https://www.kaggle.com/shaz13/feature-engineering-for-nlp-classification\">https://www.kaggle.com/shaz13/feature-engineering-for-nlp-classification</a></p>\n\n<p>There is discussion topic for blending models <a href=\"https://www.kaggle.com/c/quora-insincere-questions-classification/discussion/71778\">https://www.kaggle.com/c/quora-insincere-questions-classification/discussion/71778</a></p>\n\n<p>If you need to understand the feature extraction have a look at policy of asking questions by quora in this topic <a href=\"https://www.kaggle.com/c/quora-insincere-questions-classification/discussion/77691#456365\">https://www.kaggle.com/c/quora-insincere-questions-classification/discussion/77691#456365</a></p>\n\n<p>I hope it helps.
