%N a(n) is the number of hierarchical linear models on n labeled factors allowing 2-way interactions (but no higher order interactions); or the number of simple labeled graphs with nodes chosen from an n-set.

%C From _Petros Hadjicostas_, Apr 09 2020: (Start)

%C Hierarchical log-linear models are by definition nonempty because they always include an "intercept" (or "overall effect").

%C Note that this is different from the number of graphical hierarchical log-linear models on n labeled factors as defined in the referenced Wikipedia article about log-linear models, "A log-linear model is graphical if, whenever the model contains all two-factor terms generated by a higher-order interaction, the model also contains the higher-order interaction." See also Gauraha (2016). (End) (Comment revised by _N. J. A. Sloane_, Apr 23 2020.)

%e From _Petros Hadjicostas_, Apr 09 2020: (Start)

%e For n = 2, consider the pair of nodes {X, Y}. The simple labeled graphs with nodes from this set are the empty graph G1 = [], G2 = [X], G3 = [Y], G4 = [X, Y], and G5 = [X, Y, X-Y]. Thus a(2) = 5.

%e For n = 3, consider the three nodes {X, Y, Z}. The simple labeled graphs with nodes from this set are G1 = [], G2 = [X], G3 = [Y], G4 = [Z], G5 = [X, Y], G6 = [X, Z], G7 = [Y, Z], G8 = [X, Y, X-Y], G9 = [X, Z, X-Z], G10 = [Y, Z, Y-Z], G11 = [X, Y, Z], G12 = [X-Y Z], G13 = [X, Y,Z, X-Z], G14 = [X, Y, Z, Y-Z ], G15 = [X, Y, Z, Y-X-Z], G16 = [X, Y, Z, X-Y-Z], G17 = [Z, Y, Z, X-Z-Y], and G18 = [X, Y, Z, triangle with nodes X, Y, Z]. Thus a(3) = 18.

%e In Wickramasinghe (2008), for n = 2, all A014466(2) = 5 hierarchical log-linear models on two factors X and Y, which appear on p. 18, are trivially graphical; thus a(2) = 5.

%e For n = 3, among the A014466(3) = 19 hierarchical log-linear models on three factors X, Y, and Z, which appear on p. 36, only Model 18 is not graphical because it contains the X-Y, Y-Z, and Z-X interactions but does not contain the 3-way X-Y-Z interaction; thus a(3) = 19 - 1 = 18. (End)
