Road network extraction is a significant challenge in remote sensing (RS). Automated techniques for interpreting RS imagery offer a cost-effective solution for obtaining road network data quickly, surpassing traditional visual interpretation methods. However, the diverse characteristics of road networks, such as varying lengths, widths, materials, and geometries across different regions, pose a formidable obstacle for road extraction from RS imagery. The issue of road extraction can be defined as a task that involves capturing contextual and complex elements while also preserving boundary information and producing high-resolution road segmentation maps for RS data. The objective of the proposed Archimedes tuning process quantum dilated convolutional neural network for road Extraction (ATP-QDCNNRE) technology is to tackle the aforementioned issues by enhancing the efficacy of image segmentation outcomes that exploit remote sensing imagery, coupled with Archimedes optimization algorithm methods (AOA). The findings of this study demonstrate the enhanced road-extraction capabilities achieved by the ATP-QDCNNRE method when used with remote sensing imagery. The ATP-QDCNNRE method employs DL and a hyperparameter tuning process to generate high-resolution road segmentation maps. The basis of this approach lies in the QDCNN model, which incorporates quantum computing (QC) concepts and dilated convolutions to enhance the network’s ability to capture both local and global contextual information. Dilated convolutions also enhance the receptive field while maintaining spatial resolution, allowing fine road features to be extracted. ATP-based hyperparameter modifications improve QDCNNRE road extraction. To evaluate the effectiveness of the ATP-QDCNNRE system, benchmark databases are used to assess its simulation results. The experimental results show that ATP-QDCNNRE performed with an intersection over union (IoU) of 75.28%, mean intersection over union (MIoU) of 95.19%, F1 of 90.85%, precision of 87.54%, and recall of 94.41% in the Massachusetts road dataset. These findings demonstrate the superior efficiency of this technique compared to more recent methods.
