Christian (and Seqfans), 
        Using the trend observed in the matrix log, I calculated more
rows of your triangle. 
If your original triangle continues as:  
1;
1,1;
1,0,1;
1,1,1,1;
1,0,2,0,1;
1,1,2,2,1,1;
1,0,3,0,3,0,1;
1,1,3,3,3,3,1,1;
1,0,4,0,6,0,4,0,1;
1,1,4,4,6,6,4,4,1,1;
1,0,5,0,10,0,10,0,5,0,1;
1,1,5,5,10,10,10,10,5,5,1,1; ...
 
then this triangle is already in the OEIS as A051159 ...
is that correct?    
 
At any rate, the inverse is not in the OEIS, and is worthy.  
 
Also, it may be interesting to note the following related sequences. 
 
Antidiagonal sums = A053602  
a(n)=a(n-1)-(-1)^n*a(n-2), a(0)=0, a(1)=1.  
1,1,2,1,3,2,5,3,8,5,13,8,21,13,34,21,55,34,89,55,144,
 
Row squared sums = A063886  
Number of n-step walks on a line starting from the origin but not
returning to it.  
1,2,2,4,6,12,20,40,70,140,252,504,924,1848,3432,6864,
