In reinforcement learning (RL), the term self-play describes a kind of multi-agent learning (MAL) that deploys an algorithm against copies of itself to test compatibility in various stochastic environments.

In what follows, we present a brief survey of self-play literature, its major themes, criteria, and techniques, and then conclude with an assessment of current shortfalls of the literature as well as suggestions for future directions.
