Up to sign, same as A124754.
The reverse-alternating sum of a sequence (y_1,...,y_k) is Sum_i (-1)^(k-i) y_i.
The k-th composition in standard order (graded reverse-lexicographic, A066099) is obtained by taking the set of positions of 1's in the reversed binary expansion of k, prepending 0, taking first differences, and reversing again. This gives a bijective correspondence between nonnegative integers and integer compositions.
EXAMPLE
The sequence of nonnegative integers together with the corresponding standard compositions and their reverse-alternating sums begins:
0: () -> 0 15: (1111) -> 0 30: (1112) -> 1
1: (1) -> 1 16: (5) -> 5 31: (11111) -> 1
2: (2) -> 2 17: (41) -> -3 32: (6) -> 6
3: (11) -> 0 18: (32) -> -1 33: (51) -> -4
4: (3) -> 3 19: (311) -> 3 34: (42) -> -2
5: (21) -> -1 20: (23) -> 1 35: (411) -> 4
