Laves phases AB2 form the most abundant group of intermetallic compounds, consisting combinations larger electropositive metals A with smaller B. Many practical applications depend on ability to tune their physical properties through appropriate substitution either or B component. Although simple geometrical and electronic factors have long been thought control formation phases, no single factor alone can make predictions accurately. Several machine learning models developed discover new...
