TIMEGATE: Sustainable Time-Boxed Promotion Gates for Continual ML Adaptation Under Resource Constraints

arXiv:2605.29183v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As machine learning(ML) systems evolve to continual adaptation, each re-training cycle uses compute, annotation, and energy. We introduce TIMEGATE, a policy layer managing adaptation by budgeting time, labeling, training, and evaluation. TIMEGATE emits a metric-availability signal M for partial vs. full-evaluation decisions. We validate: (i) labeling outperforms training by 2.3x on Adult tabular; (ii) it transfers to LLaMA-3.1-8B + QLoRA on SST-2 (accuracy 0.80 to 0.96; M =1 in 35/36 runs); (iii) M is informative, 28-cell sensitivity shows M drop
