 Best way is to use an ebuild and install it with emerge.
 
 Then you can check what's installed with:
 equery files --tree package name

Or you can use qlist packagename
 
 Here is an ebuild for matlab:
 https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=466140

If you want to install from source, and it uses the standard make  make
install, try using checkinstall from 
http://asic-linux.com.mx/~izto/checkinstall/

You run checkinstall instead of make install and it tracks what is
installed. It can also build a binary package instead of installing.
