MATLAB: Find corresponding values for unique values in a matrix

matrixmatrix array

I have two matrices A and B. I want to add up elements in matrix B for every unique element in matrix A and return C
A =[1 47 22 22
1 22 47 2
2 47 1 2]
B=[1 10 11 12
3 31 33 12
5 1 20 21]
C= [1 24
2 38
22 54
47 44] %%%%summing up values in B corresponding to unique values in matrix A, such as for matrix element 1 in A,
% sum up 1+3+20 in B to return 24 in C
I am originally dealing with a shapefile and was using inpolygon function for dealing with this, but it is taking more than 55 minutes to handle one matrix as the size of the original matrices are very big (4630*9260).
Any help is very much appreciated

m= accumarray(A(:),B(:));
d=find(m);
C=[d m(d)]
