    Abstract: A compressed-truncated singular value decomposition (C-TSVD) based crossbar array apparatus is provided. The C-TSVD based crossbar array apparatus may include an original crossbar array in an m×n matrix having row input lines and column output lines and including cells of a resistance memory device, or two partial crossbar arrays obtained by decomposing the original crossbar array based on C-TSVD, an analog to digital converter (ADC) that converts output values of column output lines of sub-arrays obtained through array partitioning, an adder that sums up results of the ADC to correspond to the column output lines, and a controller that controls application of the original crossbar array or the two partial crossbar arrays. Input values are input to the row input lines, a weight is multiplied by the input values and accumulated results are output as output values of the column output lines.
