- attributes: An attribute is a property of an instance that may be used to determine its classification. For example, when classifying objects into different types in a robotic vision task, the size and shape of an instance may be appropriate attributes. Determining useful attributes that can be reasonably calculated may be a difficult job - for example, what attributes of an arbitrary chess end-game position would you use to decide who can win the game? This particular attribute selection problem has been solved, but with considerable effort and difficulty. Attributes are sometimes also called features.

- A PRM, together with a particular database of objects, defines a probability distribution over the attributes of the objects and the relations that hold between them. The relational component describes entities in the model, attributes of each entity, and references from one entity to another. The probabilistic component describes dependencies among attributes, both within the same entity and between attributes in related entities.
