Research Introduction	CaptionSmiths is a controllable image captioning framework that allows smooth adjustment of caption properties such as length, descriptiveness, and word uniqueness--within a single model. Unlike existing models, which lack explicit conditioning and struggle with smooth transitions between styles, CaptionSmiths quantifies these properties as continuous scalar values and interpolates between learned endpoint representations (e.g., very short ↔ very long).This enables fine-grained control over caption styles. Experiments show that CaptionSmiths not only improves lexical alignment, but also reduces caption length control error by over 500% compared to strong baselines.
