CuPIQP: A Batched and Differentiable QP Solver on GPUs for Robot Learning and Control
This research presents cuPIQP, a GPU-based quadratic programming solver utilizing a proximal interior-point method to support dense, sparse, and multistage problems. Benchmarks show solve-time speedups of up to 18.8x over Moreau and 4.26x over eight-core PIQP for batches of up to 16384 QPs. In end-to-end learning tasks, it accelerates training by 4.6x over QPAX and 7.8x over Moreau, offering efficient infrastructure for integrating model-based optimization into large-scale robotics pipelines.
The paper introduces cuPIQP, a GPU-accelerated quadratic programming solver designed for batched and differentiable optimization in robot learning and control tasks.

arXiv:2610.41021v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Quadratic programs (QPs) are fundamental building blocks of many robotic tasks such as inverse kinematics, whole-body control, and model predictive control. Extending these methods to large-scale robot learning and control requires solving many QPs concurrently and, for end-to-end learning, differentiating through their solutions. Efficient batched optimization is the
