  1. For this table, we use the chemical formula conventions used in the works we compare to. We compare to calculations using PBE + U unless otherwise specified. The polar space group is given in parentheses under the chemical formula. The symbol †Indicates the reference being compared to used the Local Density Approximation (LDA) functional in their calculations. LDA polarization values tend to be smaller than polarization values calculated with PBE (which we use in this work) due to smaller predicted lattice parameters by LDA than PBE. The search ids for entries in the table are: (1) 69 (2) 70 (3) 389 (4) 331 (5) 80 (6) 146 (7) 147 (8) 23 (9) 257.
