Zusammenfassung:	A social networking system selects advertisements for a user based on user characteristics of the user in response to a request to present an advertisement to the user. To increase the number of advertisements eligible for presentation to the user, the social networking system associates the user with one or more cluster groups associated with targeting criteria that are not satisfied by the user's characteristics. To determine whether to associate a user with a cluster group, the social networking system determines a cluster score for the cluster group based on the user's characteristics. If the cluster score equals or exceeds a cluster cutoff score for the cluster group, the user is associated with the cluster group. The cluster cutoff score may be determined based on an estimated distribution of users so that a target number or percentage of users have cluster scores less than the cluster cutoff score.
