You can use the reshape function in matlab to rearrange the elements in a matrix. But you can do so only if the number of elements dont change. So if you have a matrix of 4000x1, you can change it to 40x100 using reshape. So, i guess the ideal way would be to pad your 3861x1 matrix with zeros(or whatever you want to pad it with) to a 4000x1 matrix and then reshape it.

See this: 

    a = rand(3861, 1);
    b = cat(1, a, zeros(139, 1));
    c = reshape(b, 40, 100);
