Convert logical matix 3d to 2d with unknown z

Hello,

I have a 3 dimensional logical array . The size of the 3rd dimension changes and I want to convert it to 2dimensional layer.

Currently I do it this way:

        % masks is the 3d logical array        
        [xMask,yMask,zMask]=size(masks);
        mask_result= zeros(xMask,yMask);
        for m=1: zMask
            mask_result = mask_result | masks(:,:,m);
        end
       
       

Is there a more elegant way to do it ?

The any function can do this for you:

mask_result=any(masks,3)
