This is a collection of Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) papers. Each category is a potential start point for you to start your research. Some papers are listed more than once because they belong to multiple categories.
For MARL papers with code and MARL resources, please refer to MARL Papers with Code and MARL Resources Collection.
I will continually update this repository and I welcome suggestions. (missing important papers, missing categories, invalid links, etc.) This is only a first draft so far and I'll add more resources in the next few months.
