COMMENT

Or there are 3 ones in a row - this is relevant only for a(3).

Complementary to A118647, namely a(n) = 2^(n+3) - A118647(n).

FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + a(n-4) - a(n-6) + 13*2^(n-6)

EXAMPLE

a(4) is 5 because only the following binary strings of length 4 satisfy the conditions: 0111, 1011, 1101, 1011, 1111.
