    Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can generate a set of candidate content items from a plurality of content items that are available in the social networking system for a first user. A corresponding score for each of the candidate content items can be generated based at least in part on one or more social affinity coefficients corresponding to the first user and a respective second user associated with a candidate content item, wherein a social affinity coefficient provides a quantitative measurement of the strength of a relationship between two users. A first set of content items from the set of candidate content items can be determined based at least in part on the respective scores, wherein content items in the first set are included in a content feed provided to the first user.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes, by one or more computing devices of an online social network, receiving comparison information associated with two or more particular place-entities from a client system of a first user of the online social network, each particular place-entity being associated with a particular score on a first scoring scale and a first feature, ranking a scored list of place-entities comprising at least the two or more particular place-entities associated with the online social network based in part on the comparison information, wherein each place-entity of the scored list is associated with a score on the first scoring scale, and determining a place-classifier algorithm based at least in part on the ranked list of place-entities and one or more features associated with each place-entity of the ranked list, the one or more features comprising at least the first feature.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, one or more computing devices of an online social network, receives, from a mobile-client system, geographic-location information associated with the mobile-client system. The one or more computing devices identify multiple candidate place-entities associated with the online social network that correspond to the geographic-location information, where each candidate place-entity is associated with a particular geographic location. The method also includes determining, for each candidate place-entity, a confidence score based on the geographic-location information associated with the mobile-client system, where the confidence score represents a probability that the first user is located at the candidate place-entity. A location-probability distribution associated with the candidate place-entity can also be used to calculate the confidence score. The one or more computing devices send, to the mobile-client system, information associated with one or more of the candidate place-entities based on their respective confidence scores.
