Many materials exhibit some form of chemical ordering, which can have a crucial impact on their macroscopic properties. Here, atomic scale modeling based on the so-called alloy cluster expansion (CE) technique can yield very valuable information. In this contribution, we present the open-source icet package that provides an efficient implementation of this methodology. It takes advantage of state-of-the-art machine learning techniques to generate accurate and predictive models based on quantum mechanical calculations. The icet package features a Python interface that enables seamless integration with other Python libraries including for example SciPy or scikit-learn. Yet, all computationally demanding parts are written in C++ providing performance while maintaining portability. We demonstrate the application of icet by (1) studying chemical ordering and associated properties in a series of intermetallic clathrates as a function of composition and temperature and (2) by predicting the phase diagrams of bulk and surface alloys.
