COMMENTS
Joseph Myers (Dec 14 2015) reports that "My program for coordination sequences requires describing the tiling structure under translation, listing all edges in the form: (class1, 0, 0) has an edge to (class2, x, y). The present tiling has 18 orbits of vertices under translation and 30 orbits of edges under translation (each of which is described in both directions). So in principle it could generate the other 19 2-uniform tilings, but without a cross check with hand-computed terms there's a risk of e.g. missing some edges, and a fair amount of work producing all the descriptions of translation classes of edges."

FORMULA
Based on the b-file, the g.f. appears to be (1+x^2+2*x^5-2*x^6+2*x^7-x^8)/(1-3*x+4*x^2-3*x^3+x^4). This matches the first 1000 terms, so is probably correct. - N. J. A. Sloane, Dec 14 2015
Conjectured g.f. is equivalent to a(n) = 3*n - A010892(n+1) for n >= 5. - R. J. Mathar, Oct 09 2020
