Sums of products of binomial coefficients mod 2 and 2-regular sequences

Abstract: Wu showed that certain sums of products of binomial coefficients modulo 2 are given by the run length transforms of several famous linear recurrence sequences, such as the positive integers, the Fibonacci numbers, the extended Lucas numbers, and Narayana's cows sequence. In this paper we show that the run length transform of such sequences are 2-regular sequences. This allows us to obtain Wu's results and some new ones using the computer program Walnut, eliminating the need for long technical proofs.
