COMMENTS
Consider a simple cellular automaton, a grid of binary cells c(i,j), where the next state of the grid is calculated by applying the following rule to each cell: c(i,j) = ( c(i+1,j-1) + c(i+1,j+1) + c(i-1,j-1) + c(i-1,j+1) ) mod 2 If we start with a single cell having the value 1 and all the others 0, then the aggregate values of the subsequent states of the grid will be the terms in this sequence. - Andras Erszegi (erszegi.andras(AT)chello.hu), Mar 31 2006. See link for initial states. - N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 12 2015
This is the odd-rule cellular automaton defined by OddRule 033 (see Ekhad-Sloane-Zeilberger "Odd-Rule Cellular Automata on the Square Grid" link). - N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 25 2015

FORMULA
Formulas due to Paul D. Hanna: (Start)
G.f.: Product_{k>=0} 1 + 4x^(2^k).
a(n) = Product_{k=0..log_2(n)} 4^b(n, k), b(n, k)=coefficient of 2^k in binary expansion of n.
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (C(n, k) mod 2)*3^A000120(n-k). (End)
a(n) = Sum_{k=0..n} (C(n, k) mod 2) * Sum_{j=0..k} (C(k, j) mod 2) * Sum_{i=0..j} (C(j, i) mod 2). - Paul Barry, Apr 01 2005
G.f. A(x) satisfies 0 = f(A(x), A(x^2), A(x^4)) where f(u, v, w) = w * (u^2 - 2*u*v + 5*v^2) - 4*v^3. - Michael Somos, May 29 2008
Run length transform of A000302. - N. J. A. Sloane, Feb 23 2015
