FORMULA
Conjectures from Colin Barker, Jan 22 2016 and Apr 16 2019: (Start)
a(n) = 7*a(n-1)-14*a(n-2)+8*a(n-3) for n>3.
G.f.: (1-4*x+16*x^2-16*x^3) / ((1-x)*(1-2*x)*(1-4*x)).
(End)
a(n) = 2^(n + 1) * (2^n - 1) - 1, for n > 0. - Jaroslav Krizek, Jan 22 2017
MATHEMATICA
rule=221; rows=20; ca=CellularAutomaton[rule, {{1}, 0}, rows-1, {All, All}]; (* Start with single black cell *) catri=Table[Take[ca[[k]], {rows-k+1, rows+k-1}], {k, 1, rows}]; (* Truncated list of each row *) Table[FromDigits[catri[[k]], 2], {k, 1, rows}] (* Decimal Representation of Rows *)
