Because the LB test set has so much data, it's super reliable, so a good strategy is to make lots of submissions and rely on their scores.\n\nBut this comp only lets you make a few submissions, so instead you need to create a local CV strategy that is highly correlated with the LB. And to make a reliable CV strategy you need to compare lots of different local CV strategies together (I would imagine).\n\nAm I missing something?",
    "662801": "&gt; you need to create a local CV strategy that is highly correlated with the LB\n\nYou are right. But I think the key is how to select feature and split dataset not compare different cv strategy. \n\nOf course, it's just my opinion. The best way is to test and verify your thoughts, then think about why it can(not) work."
