CAPE-T2V: Captioner-Anchored Prompt Enhancement toward Two-Sided Conditioning Alignment in Text-to-Video Generation

Text-to-video (T2V) diffusion transformers (DiTs) are trained with detailed video captions, whereas inference often relies on user prompts rewritten by a prompt enhancer (PE). Prior work has improved generation by optimizing the PE, the DiT, or both; some methods have also sought to narrow the training-inference mismatch through shared schemas. Yet even within a shared schema, inference-time PE outputs and DiT training captions may still differ in detail selection, information organization, descriptive granularity, and phrasing. We refer to this residual mismatch as the PE-Caption gap and introduce CAPE-T2V, a two-step Captioner-Anchored Prompt Enhancement framework toward two-sided conditioning alignment in T2V generation. First, CAPE-T2V constructs three types of PE training examples, pairing captioner-generated targets with concise source captions, detailed source captions, or pseudo user prompts derived from those targets. It then fine-tunes the PE to map each input to its paired target. Second, CAPE-T2V fine-tunes the DiT on video-derived captions rewritten by the Anchored PE; the same PE rewrites user prompts at inference. Relative to a baseline using the same caption schema, CAPE-T2V achieves higher aggregate scores on StoryEval, VBench-2.0, and T2V-CompBench across Wan2.2 and LTX-2.3. Further, CAPE-T2V exhibits a smaller PE-Caption gap than the baseline: its DiT fine-tuning captions are closer in distribution to inference-time PE outputs, as measured by squared maximum mean discrepancy in a fixed embedding space. Overall, these results support CAPE-T2V as an effective approach to mitigating the PE-Caption gap. The project is available at https://github.com/yizzz927/CAPE-T2V.
