COMMENTS
Otherwise said: Omit numbers whose binary representation already occurs in the concatenation of the binary representation of earlier terms. As such, a binary analog of A048991 / A048992 (Hannah Rollman's numbers), rather than "early bird" binary numbers A161373. - M. F. Hasler, Jan 03 2013
