In the domain of complex urban traffic networks, real-time Traffic Signal Control (TSC) serves as a pivotal strategy for mitigating congestion. Coordinating signal control across multiple intersections involves considerable complexity. Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) has emerged as a robust solution. In recent years, there has been rapid advancement in TSC methods, with numerous researchers employing various novel DRL methodologies. Yet, existing surveys lack timeliness and universality in capturing the latest research. There is a notable gap in current research surveys with respect to the latest developments in TSC. Therefore, the focus of this paper lies in analyzing the most recent papers from the past five years, with the aim to provide a comprehensive and multi-dimensional review of the evolution of DRL in TSC. The survey categorizes current research based on model setups, utilized algorithms, and application scenarios. Finally, this paper highlights potential directions for future TSC research.
