BORG: Bounded Outcome Risk Guard for Model Evaluation

Automatically detects and enforces valid model evaluation by identifying information reuse between training and evaluation data. Guards against data leakage, look-ahead bias, and invalid cross-validation schemes that inflate performance estimates. Supports temporal, spatial, and grouped evaluation structures. Based on evaluation principles described in Roberts et al. (2017) <doi:10.1111/ecog.02881>, Kaufman et al. (2012) <doi:10.1145/2382577.2382579>, and Kapoor & Narayanan (2023) <doi:10.1016/j.patter.2023.100804>.
