# Changelog All notable changes to the Scandium Dataset will be documented in this file. ## [1.0.0] — 2026-07-24 — Scope Clarification + Honest Repositioning ### Changed - **Dataset repositioned from "SSB discovery" to "materials screening":** The tagline, dataset card, ROADMAP, and all public-facing documentation now accurately describe this as a thermodynamic and structural screening dataset for battery-relevant materials, not a full SSE-discovery resource. See [the repositioning guide](https://github.com/ScandiumLabs-in/Scandium-Dataset/issues) for the rationale. - **Version bumped to 1.0.0** to mark the scope correction as a major milestone. - DATASET_CARD.md: added "Included vs. Not Included" table, "Suitable For / Not Suitable For" section, family imbalance disclosure, roadmap section. - README.md, KNOWN_ISSUES.md, ROADMAP.md, CITATION.cff, pyproject.toml, setup.py: version and framing updated to match v1.0.0. - GitHub repo description and topics updated from "solid-state battery" to "materials screening". - HF dataset tags updated (removed `solid-state-electrolyte`, `lithium-ion-conductivity`; added `materials-screening`, `dft-stability`, `inorganic-materials`). ### Fixed - JARVIS EaH status in KNOWN_ISSUES.md corrected: previously marked as "Resolved" but the script was never re-run against the Parquet store. Actual coverage: 0% for 25,673 JARVIS entries. - CAVD coverage corrected to 0% (was ~61%). - Stability window coverage corrected to 0.7% (was ~2.2%). - Garnet count updated: 23 → 136 entries. ## [0.3.0] — 2026-07-24 — Parquet Store + Experimental Data + BVSE Fix ### Added - **Parquet dataset store** (`dataset/dataset_store.py`) - Replaces the 1.6 GB `entries_final_v3.json` with a 0.18 GB PyArrow Parquet table - Indexed lookup by `source_id` (~4s load, O(1) lookup) - Type-safe value encoding/decoding with prefix-based scheme - Incremental `update_field` with nested path support (e.g. `ssb_screening.bvse_migration_barrier_eV`) - Batch append and checkpoint without full-file rewrite - Conversion entry point: `python dataset/dataset_store.py --convert` - **OBELiX experimental data** (Therrien et al. 2025, NRC-Mila) - 599 entries with measured ionic conductivity integrated via `obelix-data` Python package - 101 OBELiX formulas matched to existing DFT entries (251 rows tagged with conductivity labels) - 498 unmatched entries appended as new `experimental_gold` tier entries - 441 unmatched formulas saved to `dataset/obelix_unmatched_formulas.json` as acquisition target - Families covered: 126 NASICON, 95 garnet, 67 perovskite, 42 argyrodite, 36 LGPS, and more - **BVSE migration barrier proxy rewritten** (`scripts/compute_bvse_barriers.py`) - Replaced hand-rolled BVSE with `bvlain` v0.25.1 (softBV percolation method) - Validated on 7 known SSEs: 5/7 pass within literature ranges, worst-case error 0.12 eV - Old implementation gave 2.667 eV for Li3PS4 (wrong); new gives 0.342-0.410 eV (correct) - Batched checkpointing via Parquet store for long runs - **Conductivity benchmark splits** (`scripts/generate_conductivity_splits.py`) - 4 split types: conductivity-stratified, family-stratified, best-conductor held-out, mobility-class held-out ### Fixed - Documentation discrepancy: CAVD coverage corrected from ~61% to 0.0% (CAVD was never re-computed against the Parquet store; needs re-run) - Documentation discrepancy: stability window coverage corrected from ~2.2% to 0.7% - DATASET_CARD.md, README.md: coverage numbers now match actual Parquet state - MODEL_LEADERBOARD.md: version updated from v0.1.0-rc.1 to v0.3.0 - Dataset card now includes explicit family imbalance disclosure (62.5% intermetallics) ### Changed - Citation corrected: Hargreaves et al. (2023) npj Comput. Mater., not "Ransom et al." - Correct DOI: 10.1038/s41524-022-00951-z - Data hosted at Materials Data Facility (ANL), not GitHub - ROADMAP.md: Phase 1-3 checkmarks corrected to reflect actual execution state -

`mobile_ion` field standardized across all entries (Li/Na/Mg presence-based, fixing prior logic that picked up Al/Ca/K as carriers) - `ssb_screening` schema block on all 266,732 entries including computed electrochemical stability windows: `stability_window_low_V`, `stability_window_high_V`, `window_width_V`, `interfacial_reaction_energy_vs_Li_eV_atom`, `passivating_interphase` (39,706 entries with windows computed via grand potential scan, 1,814 with ≥0.5V width) -

Missing `src/evaluation/metrics.py` module (evaluate.py was importing from non-existent path) - License conflict: blanket "cc-by-4.0" tag on HF page while 64.4% of entries are OQMD non-commercial ## [0.0.0] — 2026-07-21 ### Added -
