Multi-agent deep reinforcement learning is an emerging research hotspot and application direction in the field of machine learning and artificial intelligence. It covers many algorithms, rules, and frameworks, and is widely used in autonomous driving, energy allocation, formation control, trajectory planning,routing planning and social dilemma, it has extremely high research value and significance. The paper first briefly introduces the basic theory and development history of multi-agent deep reinforcement learning, then elaborates the existing classic algorithms according to four classification:non-association type, communication rule based type, mutual cooperation type and modeling learning type, then summarizes the practical application of multi-agent deep reinforcement learning and briefly lists the existing test platforms. The paper finally summarizes the challenges and future directions in theory, algorithms and applications of multi-agent deep reinforcement learning.
