FORMULA
A137672(n) = A000120(a(n)).
a(A137673(n)) = n and a(m) < n for m < A137673(n).
a(n) = 1 iff a(n-1) = 2^k - 1: a(A137674(n)) = 1.
EXAMPLE
n=4: a(3) = 2 = '10', A000120(2) = 1, therefore: a(4) = #{a(1)=1='1', a(2)=1, a(3)=2='10'} = 3;
n=5: a(4) = 3 = '11', A000120(3) = 2, therefore: a(5) = #{a(4)} = 1;
n=6: a(5) = 1 = '1', A000120(1) = 1, therefore: a(6) = #{a(1)=1='1', a(2)=1, a(3)=2='10', a(5)} = 4.
MATHEMATICA
a[1] = 1; a[n_] := a[n] = Count[Array[s, n-1], s[n-1]]; s[n_] := s[n] = DigitCount[a[n], 2, 1]; Array[a, 100] (* Amiram Eldar, Jul 27 2023 *)
