problem with repeating index values

Hi,
Suppose a = [0 0 0 0]; if I do:
a([1 1 2 2 2])= a([1 1 2 2 2])+ 1;
I get: [1 1 0 0];
However, what I really want is:
[2 3 0 0];
What would be the easiest way do achieve this?

I'm not 100% sure what you're trying to do, but is this what you're after?
a = [0 0 0 0];
Index=[1 1 2 2 2];
for n=1:numel(Index)
a(Index(n))=a(Index(n))+1;
end

Pinpress comments,
Thanks -- yes that's what I was trying to do. However, it has a potentially very slow "for" loop for a large dataset, which isn't what I am looking for.

Wow. How many elements do you have? I ran through 10 million iterations of Tom's for loop in a fraction of a second. So having a for loop doesn't seem to add much overhead. Do you have more than, say, a billion iterations to do?

This avoids using a loop, but it might be more limited than what you require. I extended the indexing array so you can a bit more about what happens (the bsxfun finds all values in the index that equal each unique value of the index, and this is summed to get the amount each one occurs)
a = [0 0 0 0];
Index=[2 2 3 3 3];
U=unique(Index);
a(U)=sum(bsxfun(@eq,Index,U'),2)
(Apologies if every time you read this I've edited it)

This is my solution:
a = [0 0 0 0];
idx = [1 1 2 2 2]'
A = accumarray(idx, ones(size(idx))) EDIT -> A = accumarray(idx, 1)
uidx = unique(idx)
a(uidx) = A'
Likely not as efficient a solution as you would like, but it sort of gets you there.

You can use A = accumarray(idx, 1) instead of constructing the ones() array.
Caution: if the unique indices were 1 and 3, then A would have indices 1, 2, 3, with the 2 position being a zero. You would not assign a([1 3]) to be the three values from A, because that would be a length mis-match. But you could use
a(uidx) = A(uidx);
The reason for doing that rather than a = A'; is that there might be trailing positions in "a" that were not touched by the indices.
Mind you, another way of dealing with that situation would be:
a = [0 0 0 0];
idx = [1 1 2 2 2]'
a = accumarray(idx, 1, [max(idx) 1]) .';

I discovered later, after I remembered that accumarray demands a column vector rather than the initial row vector (that it did not like) for the first argument, that it doesn't have any strong opinions about the second. I initially misinterpreted its error message and thought it wanted vectors of the same length for both arguments. (The ones vector needs to be replaced by ‘1’ for esthetics if not efficiency, but I didn't edit my code because then your comment wouldn't have a context.)
As I understand the question and the preferred outcome, there are trailing positions in a that aren't touched by the indices. That's the reason I wrote it as I did, i.e.:
However, what I really want is:
[2 3 0 0];
Maybe I missed something.
Anyway, with Bruno Luong not here, I wanted to be sure accumuarray got a mention!

If you have:
idx = [1 1 2 2 2];
a = [0 0 0 0]; % Or any row vector, for generality.
why not just do:
a = a + histc(idx,1:length(a)); % Use length to make it general
This should be extremely fast, as HISTC is built-in.

a = [0 0 0 0];
Index=[1 1 2 2 2];
s = regionprops(Index,'Area');
a(unique(Index)) = [s.Area];
