(4.1.11) Xu : There is an ongoing effort devoted to the development of reference data sets that are sufficiently accurate for benchmarking functional performance. A recent progress in the community is the emergence of large data sets for the maingroup chemistry -for example, the MGCDB84 set with about 5000 data points maintained by Head-Gordon's group 273 and the GMTKN55 set of Grimme's group with about 1500 data points 336 . Comprehensive benchmarking of existing DFAs for main-group chemistry has become a reality, numerically validating the concept of Jacob's Ladder of Kohn-Sham DFT by demonstrating that a higher-rung DFA is, in general, more accurate than a lower-rung DFA. For transition-metal systems, the situation is more complex and less developed than for main-group systems. Large transition-metal test sets with accurate reference data are urgently needed. It is not merely important for benchmarking Kohn-Sham DFAs, but also fundamentally important for understanding the limitations of current Kohn-Sham DFAs for stronglycorrelated systems as mentioned in contribution (3.4.1), since transition-metal systems often have a strong multireference character.
