You might try PL/R:
create table regres(grp int, a int[] not null);
insert into regres values
(1,'{1, 2, 3}'),
(1,'{9, 12, 13}'),
(1,'{4, 2, 3}'),
(2,'{4, 5, 6}'),
(2,'{7, 8, 9}')
;
create or replace function plr_pairwise_sum(a int[], b int[]) returns
int[] as $$
if (is.null(a))
return(b)
else
return(a + b)
$$ language plr;
CREATE AGGREGATE pairwise_sum (int[])
(
sfunc = plr_pairwise_sum,
stype = int[]
);
select grp, pairwise_sum(a) from regres group by grp;
grp | pairwise_sum
- -----+--------------
1 | {14,16,19}
2 | {11,13,15}
(2 rows)
