We present PyQUBO, an open-source Python library for constructing quadratic
unconstrained binary optimizations (QUBOs) from the objective functions and the constraints
of optimization problems. PyQUBO enables users to prepare QUBOs or Ising models for
various combinatorial optimization problems with ease thanks to the abstraction of
expressions and the extensibility of the program. QUBOs and Ising models formulated using

We present PyQUBO, an open-source Python library for constructing quadratic unconstrained binary optimizations (QUBOs) from the objective functions and the constraints of optimization problems. PyQUBO enables users to prepare QUBOs or Ising models for various combinatorial optimization problems with ease thanks to the abstraction of expressions and the extensibility of the program. QUBOs and Ising models formulated using PyQUBO are solvable by Ising machines, including quantum annealing machines. We introduce the features of PyQUBO with applications in the number partitioning problem, knapsack problem, graph coloring problem, and integer factorization using a binary multiplier. Moreover, we demonstrate how PyQUBO can be applied to production-scale problems through integration with quantum annealing machines. Through its flexibility and ease of use, PyQUBO has the potential to make quantum annealing a more practical tool among researchers.
