A method (300) for determining a set of policies (210) for controlling a corresponding set of different acting entities (100, 110) which is represented by a corresponding set of agents (201, 202) is described. The method (300) comprises: determining (301) a set of actions (212) of the corresponding set of agents (201, 202) using a corresponding set of state-action-functions (230), respectively; wherein the set of state-action-functions (230) is dependent on a set of states (211) of the corresponding set of agents (201, 202); determining (302) a set of updated states (211) of the corresponding set of agents (201, 202) based on the determined set of actions (212); determining (303) a set of instant rewards for the corresponding set of agents (201, 202) based on the set of actions (212) and based on the set of states (211) and/or based on the set of updated states (211) of the corresponding set of agents (201, 202); determining (304) at least one empowerment term which is indicative of mutual information and/or correlation between at least one action (212) from the set of actions (212) and at least one updated state (211) from the set of updated states (211); and updating (305) the set of state-action-functions (230) based on the set of instant rewards and based on the at least one empowerment term; wherein the set of policies (210) for controlling the corresponding set of acting entities (100, 110) is determined based on the updated set of state-action-functions (230), respectively.
