Finding Consecutive True Values in a Vector

I want to sum consecutive 1 values given a logical input vector. An example of input and output is below. Notice that the output is the sum of the previous elements that were 1 and if a zero element is encountered, the sum starts over. I am trying to avoid a for loop here if I can. Suggestions?
Input Output
0 0

1 1
0 0

a0 = a(:); % input vector
ii = strfind(a0',[1 0]);
a1 = cumsum(a0);
i1 = a1(ii);
a0(ii+1) = -[i1(1);diff(i1)];
out = cumsum(a0); % output vector

Andrei, you didn't define a0, I guess a0=a(:) in the first line. Your code is slightly faster then Roger's
Thank you Azzi for reply. I corrected.
I had to work this line by line to figure out what it was doing. Very nice solution. To summarize, you add values at the consecutive 1's break to make the cumulative sum correct at the right elements. Great work!
Documented Code:
a=[0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0]';
a0 = a;
% Find the end of any consecutive 1's in a0
ii= strfind(a0',[1 0]);
a1 = cumsum(a);
% Cumulative sum at end of any consecutive 1's in a0
i1 = a1(ii);
% Places the amount to subtract during cumulative-sum 1-element past the
% consecutive 1's in a to produce only the cumulative sum of consecutive
% 1's in a0. If this is confusing, output a0 after this step.
a0(ii+1) = -[i1(1);diff(i1)];
a0
% output vector
out = cumsum(a0);
out
Outputs this:
a0' = 0 0 0 1 -1 1 -1 0 1 1 1 1 -4
out' =0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 2 3 4 0

Let the input column vector be called x.
y = [x;0];
f = find(diff([0;y])~=0);
p = f(2:2:end);
y(p) = y(p)-p+f(1:2:end-1);
y = cumsum(y(1:end-1));
Then y is your output.
a=[0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0]'
ii1=strfind([0 a' 0],[0 1])
ii2=strfind([0 a' 0],[1 0])-1
out=zeros(1,numel(a));
for k=1:numel(ii1)
c1=ii1(k);
c2=ii2(k);
out(c1:c2)=1:c2-c1+1
end
out'

Azzi,
Thanks for the answer but I am trying to totally avoid the loop if possible. I think it can be done.
Don't be afraid of for loops. The fear of them is way overblown, especially for more recent versions of MATLAB. Unless your vector is tens of millions of elements long, I wouldn't worry about it. I would choose the one answer from the 3 that is the most well commented, intuitive, and easy to understand , if there is any. Any speed differences are probably negligible.

Hide the loops ;-)
input = [1 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1 1 1 0]
[~,~,C] = logicalfind(input,1) ;
C = cellfun(@cumsum, C,'un',0) ;
output = input ;
output(output==1) = [C{:}]
