Averaging multiple cells together

I apologize if this is a simple question, but I was wondering if there was a way to create a new cell that contained the average of the numeric values of multiple other cells so that the numeric values were only averaged with other values in the same location across the cells (for example 5 found in row 1 column 2 in cell 1 will only be averaged with other numbers in other cells that are in row 1 column 2). If it helps, I have 5 cells that each have parameters of 3000x4. Thank you.

If the parameter matrices are all the same size (3000x4), why are you holding them in cells? Why not as a 3000x4x5 array? This would make the operations you're trying to do trivially easy (see my further comments below).

Excellent point. Never mess around with cell arrays when you don't have to - they always add a layer of complications, e.g. do I use parentheses of braces, etc.

avgCell = {mean(cat(3,yourcell{:}),3)}

If you had held this as a 3000x4x5 array, A, this would have been as simple as

avg=mean(A,3);
