Detect missing value between two vectors that are similar, but not the same!

Hi everyone,

If I got two vectors (A and B) like you can see downbelow:

if true
  % code
A = [26        3553        7064       10558       14048       17568]
B = [3503      7002       10481       13927       17544]
end

How can I find the correct missing index and replace add the value that is suppose to near the opposite value?

In this case I would like to change B, so it got a result like this:

if true
B_new = [ 8     3503      7002       10481       13927       17544]
end

B_new(1), doesn't have to be 8, but a number that is close to A(1) and follow the pattern of change in B.

Thank you in advance :)

Perhaps not terribly efficient but what about pairing by minimizing distances pdist2 and then your left with "odd man out" for the one with the largest difference. That would presume there my not be two very similar values in the same series.
