contents Materials databases built from calculations based on density functional approximations play an important role in the discovery of materials with improved properties. Most databases thus constructed rely on the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) for electron exchange and correlation. This limits the reliability of these databases, as well as the artificial intelligence (AI) models trained on them, for certain classes of materials and properties which are not well described by GGA. In this paper, we describe a database of 7,024 inorganic materials presenting diverse structures and compositions generated using hybrid functional calculations enabled by their efficient implementation in the all-electron code FHI-aims. The database is used to evaluate the thermodynamic and electrochemical stability of oxides relevant to catalysis and energy related applications. We illustrate how the database can be used to train AI models for material properties using the sure-independence screening and sparsifying operator (SISSO) approach.
