This is the Run Length Transform of S(n) = {1,2,3,5,7,11,...} (1 followed by the primes).
The Run Length Transform of a sequence {S(n), n>=0} is defined to be the sequence {T(n), n>=0} given by T(n) = Product_i S(i), where i runs through the lengths of runs of 1's in the binary expansion of n. E.g., 19 is 10011 in binary, which has two runs of 1's, of lengths 1 and 2. So T(19) = S(1)*S(2). T(0)=1 (the empty product).

FORMULA
EXAMPLE
From Omar E. Pol, Feb 12 2015: (Start)
Written as an irregular triangle in which row lengths is A011782:
1;
2;
2,3;
2,4,3,5;
2,4,4,6,3,6,5,7;
2,4,4,6,4,8,6,10,3,6,6,9,5,10,7,11;
2,4,4,6,4,8,6,10,4,8,8,12,6,12,10,14,3,6,6,9,6,12,9,15,5,10,10,15,7,14,11,13;
...
Right border gives the noncomposite numbers. This is simply a restatement of the theorem that this sequence is the Run Length Transform of A008578.
