Find minimum of first column of matrix among multiple cells and then second and so on..

M is a cell array of 1650x1 rows

M{1} is a matrix of 160x1 rows

Looking to find the minimum among each row of every matrix, different cell

Loop 1:
  M{1}(1)
  M{2}(1)
  M{3}(1)
  .
  .
  until
  M{1650}(1)
  (Find which is the minimum value)
Loop 160
M{1}(160)
  M{2}(160)
  M{3}(160)
  .
  .
  until
  M{1650}(160)

compare M{1}(1) and M{2}(1) and so on to see which is minimum

Since all the vectors are all the same size, why are they stored in a cell array. Simpler would be to convert that cell array to a matrix, which also makes the task of finding the minimum trivial:

M = [M{:}];  %convert to a matrix by concatenating all the column vectors together
min_val = min(M, [], 2)  %get the minimum across the 1650 columns
