How to run matlab .m files in google colab
I am currently trying to run this repo
https://github.com/Fanziapril/mvfnet
which requires a step:

"Run the Matlab/ModelGeneration/ModelGenerate.m to generate the shape
model "Model_Shape.mat" and copy it to the Matlab/"


Is it possible to run a .m file in colab to do this?

Also, I have looked into oct2py library 
https://blink1073.github.io/oct2py/,
but was not able to successfully run the file.
I followed this How to run a MATLAB code on Python

You need to first install octave with

!apt install octave


Then you can run your m-file with

!octave -W file.m


Here's a minimal example.
