Comments

Locate the node which contains n in binary tree A005940 and traverse towards the root (which is 1), counting separately all numbers of the form 4k+1 and of the form 4k+3 that occur on the path (including also starting n itself, if it is of the either form), until 1 is reached, which however, is never included in the count of 4k+1. a(n) is the count of 4k+3 numbers minus the count of 4k+1 numbers that were encountered.
