    Abstract: A method of determining a current in a memory element of a crossbar array is described. In the method, a number of pre-access operations are initiated. Each pre-access operation includes discarding a previously stored sneak current, determining a new sneak current for the crossbar array, discarding a previously stored sneak current, and storing the new sneak current. In the method, in response to a received access command, an access voltage is applied to a target memory element of the crossbar array and an element current for the target memory element is determined based on an access current and a stored sneak current.
