So I have cell arrays that contain other cells The structure looks like this:

Cell{X} always contains 3 sub-cells, the first sub-cell always contains a 16x107 matrix, the second one a 16x47 matrix and the third one a 16x147 matrix. These are matrices with those dimensions. I want to take the (nan)mean of all same-sized matrices, in some way that is the intuitive equivalent of this: nanmean(Cell{1:end}{1}), nanmean(Cell{1:end}{2}), nanmean(Cell{1:end}{3}), etc. The mean should be taken along the 1st dimension so I end up with with 3 mean matrices, one 16x107, one 16x47, and one 16x147.

Obviously the above ways don't work ('Bad cell reference operation'). How can I do this without looping through everything and adding them up one by one?

To Clarify:

My data:

Cell_1(cell_1(Matrix),cell_2(Matrix),cell_3(Matrix))
Cell_2(cell_1(Matrix),cell_2(Matrix),cell_3(Matrix))
Cell_3(cell_1(Matrix),cell_2(Matrix),cell_3(Matrix))
Cell_4(cell_1(Matrix),cell_2(Matrix),cell_3(Matrix))

I want to get 3 mean matrices, one of all cell_1(Matrix), one of all cell_2(Matrix), and one of all cell_3(Matrix), where the 3 mean matrices are of size cell_1(Matrix), cell_2(Matrix), and cell_3(Matrix). I do not want to take means along the dimensions within a given cell(Matrix), but along the dimensions of Cell, NOT cell.

Try this

%-----------Your array--------------------------------------------------
Y1={num2cell(rand(16,107)),num2cell(rand(16,47)),num2cell(rand(16,147))};
Y2={num2cell(rand(16,107)),num2cell(rand(16,47)),num2cell(rand(16,147))};
Y3={num2cell(rand(16,107)),num2cell(rand(16,47)),num2cell(rand(16,147))};

n=numel(Ycell);
m=numel(Ycell{1});
M=cell(n,m);
for p=1:m
  for k=1:n
      M{k,p}=cell2mat(Ycell{k}{p});
  end
  [ii,jj]=size(M{k,p});
  a=cell2mat(M(1:n,p));
  b=reshape(a',jj,ii,[]);
  out{p}=nanmean(b,3)';
end
out

This seems to work, thanks! Though I'm not sure what the s=[] is for, so I removed it.

Ok

out=cellfun(@(y) cellfun(@(x) nanmean(cell2mat(x(:))),y,'un',0),Ycell,'un',0)
res=nanmean(cell2mat(cellfun(@(x) cell2mat(x)',out,'un',0)),2)

It should return a 1 {1 x 3} cell array of 16x107, 16x47, and 16x147 means, not just 3 means but 3 arrays. As illustrated in my comment above, the equivalent of adding the 4 matrices, then dividing by 4. It should produce the same structure and values as what I typed above.

Thank you for all your help by the way, I appreciate it :)

I think you need two cellfuns with the inner-cellfun being part of the anonymous function for the first:

cellfun(@(c)cellfun(@(x)nanmean(x),c,'uni',false),your_cell,'uni',false)

This solution takes means for each cell only within the cell itself, and not across all cells. For a cell size 4, it returns 4 cells, each of which contain 3 sub-cells with matrices that are 1x107, 1x47, and 1x147. Instead, as stated in the post I want to end up with just 3 matrices of size 16x107, 16x47, and 16x147, where for example the first matrix was generated by taking the first matrices in each of 4 cells (so taking 4 16x107 matrices) and taking a mean of those values across the cells (so for each mean value only 4 values go into it), and a single 16x107 matrix is returned such that value (1,1) in that mean matrix is a mean of the 4 values at (1,1) from each first matrix of the 4 cells, etc. God this is really confusing to describe, sorry :)
