A 1.488 approximation algorithm for the uncapacitated facility location problem
TL;DR: It is shown that if @c is randomly selected, the approximation ratio can be improved to 1.488 and the gap with the 1.463 approximability lower bound is cut by almost 1/3.

A 1.488 approximation algorithm for the uncapacitated facility location problem
TL;DR: It is shown that if γf is randomly selected from some distribution, the approximation ratio can be improved to 1.488 and the gap with the 1.463 approximability lower bound is cut by almost 1/3.

Approximating k-median via pseudo-approximation
Shi Li,Ola Svensson +1 more
TL;DR: A novel approximation algorithm for k-median is presented that achieves an approximation guarantee of 1+√3+ε, improving upon the decade-old ratio of 3+ε.

Capacity of large scale wireless networks under Gaussian channel model
Shi Li,Yunhao Liu,Xiang-Yang Li +2 more
TL;DR: The multicast capacity of a large scale random wireless network is studied, where a number of wireless nodes are randomly located in a square region with side-length Poisson distribution with density 1, to generalize the unicast capacity for random networks using percolation theory.
