提出无参考评估方法，发现未微调模型反而更擅长遥感图像描述。

The core objective of image captioning is to achieve lossless semantic compression from visual signals into textual modalities. However, the reliance on manually curated reference texts for evaluation essentially forces models to mimic specific human annotation styles, thereby masking the true descriptive capabilities of advanced foundation models. This systemic misalignment prompts a critical question: Is task-specific fine-tuning truly necessary for Remote Sensing Image Captioning, or is the perceived performance gap merely an artifact of flawed evaluation criteria? To investigate this discrepancy, we propose ReconScore, a novel reference-free evaluation metric. Rather than computing textual similarities, we assess caption quality by its capability to reconstruct the original visual elements solely from the generated text, effectively neutralizing human annotation biases. Applying this metric, we uncover a profound, counterintuitive truth: inherently powerful, unfine-tuned MLLMs surpass their fine-tuned counterparts in authentic zero-shot RSIC tasks. Driven by this structural discovery, we introduce RemoteDescriber, a completely training-free generation methodology. By employing ReconScore as a self-correction mechanism, we iteratively refine the semantic precision of MLLM outputs without any computational fine-tuning overhead. Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that RemoteDescriber achieves state-of-the-art performance on three datasets. Furthermore, we validate ReconScore's reliability and analyze the flaws of traditional metrics. Our code is available at https://github.com/hhu-czy/RemoteDescriber.
