Search strategy in RI. The sequence of pattern vertices produced by the static search strategy of RI. The first vertex inserted in μ is 4, since it has the greatest number of edges. Then, suppose that μ = {4, 1}, the candidates to be inserted are vertices 0,2,6, 5 and 7. The next vertex that will be inserted in μ is 5, because vertex 5 has a greater number of edges pointing neighbors of vertices in μ (i.e. point to 2 and 7) than vertex 0. Even though the node 5 has fewer edges pointing to all remaining vertices (i.e. consider the edge 〈5, 8〉 for 5, and for 0 the edges 〈0, 3〉 and 〈0, 9〉), this case has less weight in in defined score.
