I want to delete corresponded rows in mother matrix x when x2 have duplicated rows, the following code may explain the goal:
x=[1 0 0 1 1;1 0 1 0 1;1 1 0 0 1]; %mother matrix
y=[5 -2 -1 -1 -1];
x2=[];
for k=1:size(x,1)
x2=[x2;x(k,:)*y'];
end
so this code will give x2=[3;3;2] which means row '1' and row '2' are considered the same and I want to use only one row and delete the other, how can I do that?

Does the order of the rows need to stay the same?

[x2u, x2u_idx] = unique(x2, 'stable');
new_x = x(x2u_idx, :);

new_x = x(unique(x2),:);

x=[1 0 0 1 1;1 0 1 0 1;1 1 0 0 1];
y=[5 -2 -1 -1 -1];
x2=[];
for k=1:size(x,1)
x2=[x2;x(k,:)*y'];
end
[x_val,x_idx]=unique(x2);
for i=1:size(x_idx)
j=x_idx(i);
new_x(i,:)=x(j,:);
end
i did this and it works but looking for simpler code?
