Optimize matlab triple for loop I have a large matrix samples, I want to make another matrix sampleProb which is the same size, but modified as below: 

%samples is a 1000*1000 matrix, M = 1000
sampleProb = zeros(1000);
for i = 1:size(samples, 2)
  for j = 1:M
    for k = 1:M
      if (k ~= j)
        sampleProb(j, i) = sampleProb(j, i) + normcdf(samples(j, i) - samples(k, i));
      end
    end
  end
end
sampleProb = sampleProb./M;


I know it's best to avoid for loops when possible in Matlab and operations should be vectorised, but I can't figure out what to do. How can I optimise this for performance?
Introduction and solution code

Since you mentioned making the output matrix sampleProb, I am assuming it to be initialized as all zeros. So, here's the vectorized implementation with the mighty bsxfun -

%// Get the subtractions
sub1 = bsxfun(@minus,samples,permute(samples,[3 2 1]))

%// Calculate the sum of normcdf's in a vectorized fashion
sampleProb = bsxfun(@minus,sum(normcdf(sub1),3),normcdf(sub1(1,:,1)))./M




Benchmarking

Benchmarking Code with M = 100 -

M = 100;
samples =  rand(M,M);
sampleProb1 =  zeros(M,M);

for i = 1:size(samples, 2)

        for k = 1:M
            if (k ~= j)
                sampleProb1(j, i) = sampleProb1(j, i) + normcdf(samples(j, i) - samples(k, i));
            end
        end
    end
end
sampleProb1 = sampleProb1./M;
toc, clear sampleProb1 i j k
