Aspects of a neural network operation device are described herein. The aspects may include a matrix element storage module configured to receive a first matrix that includes one or more first values, each of the first values being represented in a sequence that includes one or more bits. The matrix element storage module may be further configured to respectively store the one or more bits in one or more storage spaces in accordance with positions of the bits in the sequence. The aspects may further include a numeric operation module configured to calculate an intermediate result for each storage space based on one or more second values in a second matrix and an accumulation module configured to sum the intermediate results to generate an output value.
