This repo is an open-source implementation of DeepMind's Sequential Social Dilemma (SSD) multi-agent game-theoretic environments [1]. SSDs can be thought of as analogous to spatially and temporally extended Prisoner's Dilemma-like games. The reward structure poses a dilemma because individual short-term optimal strategies lead to poor long-term outcomes for the group. The implemented environments are structured to be compatible with OpenAIs gym environments (https://github.com/openai/gym) The above plot shows the empirical Schelling diagrams for both Cleanup (A) and Harvest (B) (from [2]).
