No edge of a minimal cover can be a subset of any other, so minimal covers are antichains, but the converse is not true. - Gus Wiseman, Jul 03 2019
a(n) is the number of undirected graphs on n nodes for which the intersection number and independence number are equal. See Proposition 2.3.7 and Theorem 2.3.3 of the Deligeorgaki et al. paper below. - Alex Markham, Oct 13 2022

If self-dual means (pairwise) intersecting, then a(n) is the number of maximal intersecting antichains of nonempty subsets of {1..(n - 1)}. A set of sets is an antichain if no part is a subset of any other, and is intersecting if no two parts are disjoint. For example, the a(2) = 1 through a(5) = 20 maximal intersecting antichains are:

COMMENTS
A set system (set of sets) is an antichain if no part is a subset of any other, and is intersecting if no two parts are disjoint.
FORMULA
For n > 1, a(n) = A326363(n) - n - 1 = A007363(n + 1) - n.

The a(4) = 16 maximal intersecting antichains:

The spanning case is A006602 or A261005. The labeled case is A014466.
From Petros Hadjicostas, Apr 22 2020: (Start)
a(n) is the number of "types" of log-linear hierarchical models on n factors in the sense of Colin Mallows (see the emails to N. J. A. Sloane).
Two hierarchical models on n factors belong to the same "type" iff one can obtained from the other by a permutation of the factors.
The total number of hierarchical log-linear models on n factors (in all "types") is given by A014466(n) = A000372(n) - 1.
The name of a hierarchical log-linear model on factors is based on the collection of maximal interaction terms, which must be an antichain (by the definition of maximality).
In his example on p. 1, Colin Mallows groups the A014466(3) = 19 hierarchical log-linear models on n = 3 factors x, y, z into a(3) = 9 types. See my example below for more details. (End)
First differs from A348260(n + 1) - 1 at a(5) = 209, A348260(6) - 1 = 232. - Gus Wiseman, Nov 28 2021

FORMULA
a(n) = A003182(n) - 1.
Partial sums of A006602 minus 1.
EXAMPLE
Non-isomorphic representatives of the a(0) = 1 through a(3) = 9 antichains:
{} {} {} {}
{{1}} {{1}} {{1}}
{{1,2}} {{1,2}}
{{1},{2}} {{1},{2}}
{{1,2,3}}
{{1},{2,3}}
{{1},{2},{3}}
{{1,3},{2,3}}
{{1,2},{1,3},{2,3}}
From Petros Hadjicostas, Apr 23 2020: (Start)
We expand Colin Mallows's example from p. 1 of his list of 1991 emails. For n = 3, we have the following a(3) = 9 "types" of log-linear hierarchical models:
Type 1: ( ), Type 2: (x), (y), (z), Type 3: (x,y), (y,z), (z,x), Type 4: (x,y,z), Type 5: (xy), (yz), (zx), Type 6: (xy,z), (yz,x), (zx,y), Type 7: (xy,xz), (yx,yz), (zx,zy), Type 8: (xy,yz,zx), Type 9: (xyz).
For each model, the name only contains the maximal terms. See p. 36 in Wickramasinghe (2008) for the full description of the 19 models.
Strictly speaking, I should have used set notation (rather than parentheses) for the name of each model, but I follow the tradition of the theory of log-linear models. In addition, in an interaction term such as xy, the order of the factors is irrelevant.
Models in the same type essentially have similar statistical properties.
For example, models in Type 7 have the property that two factors are conditionally independent of one another given each level (= category) of the third factor.
Models in Type 6 are such that two factors are jointly independent from the third one. (End)
