I am using pdist, and although embracing the vector approach for reduced memory consumption, the size of the vector exceeds matlab size array preference. Any ideas how to tackle this problem?

Localizations=[fluidicsSeq{1,fcyc}.x,fluidicsSeq{1,fcyc}.y,fluidicsSeq{1,fcyc}.z];
    D = pdist(Localizations);

What is the size of Localizations when you try to call pdist on it?

It's really big, so what to overcome that I found a way to reduce the amount of data.
