Abstract
In one embodiment, a set of user groups of a social-networking system may be accessed. A first subset of the user groups may be determined for a particular user of the social-networking system, based on one or more filtering criteria. A number of recommendation-source processes may be applied to the first subset to determine a number of second subsets of the first set. Each recommendation-source process may represent a particular recommendation source. The second subsets may be combined into a list of user groups. The list of user groups may be ranked, and sent to the particular user.
