Gpu methods to locate unique IDs

Hi,
I am just looking for some ideas to solve this problem on gpu with matlab.
There is a 2 x N vector. Row 1 has N has Ids which can be duplicate. Row 2 has corresponding numerical values. I need to sum all the values for which there is a unique column ID.
Input : [1 1 1 2 2 3 3; 10 11 12 13 14 15 16] Output : [1 2 3; 33 27 31]
A vectorized solution of this on a GPU I am guessing would be the fastest
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Start with an implementation on the CPU using accumarray.
Then decide, if the index vector is dense, this means if it contains values from 1 to N, which are all positive integers without larger gaps. Then it is much faster to accumulate the values using them as indixes. In this case a C-Mex function might be very efficient.

Please explain, if the IDs are "dense" positive integers. I'm not convinced, that this is most efficient on the GPU. How large is the array?

Yes the IDs are positive integers, with no gaps. I am also not very sure that this a GPU problem. However most of the calculations leading up to this operations were on the GPU. so transferring the data out of the GPU just for this would be a big overhead.
