FORMULA
Empirical: a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 6*a(n-2) + 8*a(n-3) - 13*a(n-4) + 12*a(n-5) -8*a(n-6) +8*a(n-7) -4*a(n-8) for n>13.
Empirical g.f.: x^2*(6 + 107*x - 174*x^2 + 171*x^3 - 548*x^4 + 441*x^5 - 308*x^6 + 519*x^7 - 92*x^8 + 34*x^9 - 28*x^10 - 32*x^11) / ((1 - x)^2*(1 - x - 2*x^3)^2). - Colin Barker, Feb 19 2019
