Summary Scalp electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG) analysis is typically very noisy and contains various non-neural signals, such as heartbeat artifacts. Independent component analysis (ICA) is a common procedure to remove these artifacts [@Bell1995]. However, removing artifacts requires manual annotation of ICA components, which is subject to human error and very laborious when operating on large datasets. This work makes the popular ICLabel model [@iclabel2019] available in Python by creating a software package compatible with the MNE-Python [from v1.1; @Agramfort2013] software toolkit in a modern PyTorch format [@Pytorch2019]. The ICLabel model was previously only available in an outdated version of TensorFlow that was no longer supported, and migrating the model now to an updated PyTorch version will ensure the model will not break due to unmaintained versions of software. This enables the automatic labeling of ICA components, improving the preprocessing and analysis pipeline of electrophysiological data. The Python ICLabel model is fully tested against and matches exactly the output produced in its MATLAB counterpart [@iclabel2019]. Moreover, this work builds the API on top of the robust MNE-Python ecosystem, enabling a seamless integration of automatic ICA analysis.
