This paper studies the performative prediction problem where a learner aims to minimize the expected loss with a decision-dependent data distribution. Such setting is motivated when outcomes can be affected by the prediction model, e.g., strategic classification. We consider a state-dependent setting where the data distribution evolves according to a controlled Markov chain. We focus on stochastic derivative free optimization (DFO) where the learner is given access to a loss function evaluation oracle with the above Markovian data. We propose a two-timescale DFO(λ) algorithm that features (i) a sample accumulation mechanism that utilizes every observed sample to estimate the gradient of performative risk, (ii) a two-timescale diminishing step size that balances the rates of DFO updates and bias reduction. Under a non-convex optimization setting, we show that DFO(λ) requires O(1/Ε3) samples (up to a log factor) to attain a near-stationary solution with expected squared gradient norm less than Ε. Numerical experiments verify our analysis. Copyright 2024 by the author(s)
