COMMENTS
The left column is set to 1. The four rightmost columns start with powers of 2:
T(n, 0) = T(n, n)=1; T(n, n-1)=2; T(n, n-2)=4; T(n, n-3)=8; T(n, n-4)=16.
Recurrence: T(n, k) = T(n-1, k) + T(n-2, k) + T(n-3, k) + T(n-4, k) + T(n-5, k) + T(n-5,k-1), k = 1..n-5.
From Petros Hadjicostas, Jun 14 2019: (Start)
In the attached photograph we see that the index of asymmetry is denoted by s (rather than y) and the index of obliqueness by e (rather than z).
The general recurrence is G(n+s+2, k) = G(n+1, k-e*s+e-1) + Sum_{1 <= m <= s+1} G(n+m, k-e*s+m*e-2*e) for n >= 0 with k = 1..(n+1) when e = 0 and k = (s+1)..(n+s+1) when e = 1. The initial conditions are G(n+x+1, n-e*n+e*x-e+1) = 2^x for x=0..s and n >= 0. There is one more initial condition, namely, G(n, e*n) = 1 for n >= 0.
For s = 0, we get Pascal's triangle A007318. For s = 1, we get A140998 (e = 0) and A140993 (e = 1). For s = 2, we get A140997 (e = 0) and A140994 (e = 1). For s = 3, we get A140996 (e = 0) and A140995 (e = 1). For s = 4, we have the current array (with e = 0) and array A141021 (with e = 1). In some of these arrays, the indices n and k are sometimes shifted.

FORMULA
From Petros Hadjicostas, Jun 14 2019: (Start)
T(n, k) = A141021(n, n-k) for 0 <= k <= n.
Bivariate g.f.: Sum_{n,k >= 0} T(n, k)*x^n*y^k = (1 - x - x^2 - x^3 - x^4 - x^5 + y*x^2*(1 + x + x^2 + x^4)) / ((1 - x) * (1 - x*y) * (1 - x - x^2 - x^3 - x^4 - x^5 - x^5*y)).
Differentiating the bivariate w.r.t. y and setting y = 0, we get the g.f. of the column k = 1: x/((-1 + x)*(x^5 + x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x - 1)). This is the g.f. of a shifted version of sequence A001949.
