Formula

a(n) = 2^n*(54*n^7 - 763*n^6 + 4158*n^5 - 11305*n^4 + 16401*n^3 - 12502*n^2 + 4587*n - 630)/10080.

G.f.: (16*z^4 + 576*z^3 + 1112*z^2 + 192*z - 15)/(2*z-1)^8.

a(n) = 16*a(n-1) - 112*a(n-2) + 448*a(n-3) - 1120*a(n-4) + 1792*a(n-5) - 1792*a(n-6) + 1024*a(n-7) - 256*a(n-8).

a(n) - 15*a(n-1) + 98*a(n-2) - 364*a(n-3) + 840*a(n-4) - 1232*a(n-5) + 1120*a(n-6) - 576*a(n-7) + 128*a(n-8) = 27*2^(n-1).
