The rational design of high-entropy oxides (HEOs) is currently hindered by the scarcity of structured property data in the scientific literature. In this work, we present an end-to-end materials informatics framework that couples Large Language Model (LLM) data mining with interpretable machine learning to predict single-phase stability in HEOs. We deployed agents based on gpt-oss-120b to extract compositions, phases, and synthesis methods from unstructured scientific abstracts. Combined with regular-expression routines, the LLM-based agent achieved an accuracy of 96% in database generation despite the complexity of the task, including on-the-fly inference of relative cation proportions. Subsequently, a range of machine-learning models was trained in an exploratory multi-class classification setting to distinguish canonical HEO crystal structures using several variants of the primary databases obtained by combining different feature subsets. For this task, an XGBoost classifier achieved an F1-score of 86% in a seven-class classification problem, and the best-performing database variant combined primary and statistical features. This optimal database representation was then used to train a neural-network binary classifier to distinguish perovskite from non-perovskite compositions, achieving 97.9% classification accuracy on the test set, whereas the Goldschmidt tolerance factor reached only 67.3% on the same data. These results indicate that the proposed methodology can support the design of HEO compositions with target properties and substantially outperforms traditional descriptor-based approaches. Furthermore, SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations) analysis revealed that high-entropy perovskite phase stability is governed by a critical interplay between geometric factors, such as the sum of cation radii, and electronic descriptors, including Sanderson electronegativity and atomization enthalpy. Overall, these findings demonstrate that LLM-driven data mining can overcome data bottlenecks and enable the discovery of physical design rules for complex multicomponent ceramics.
