Example methods and systems for tomographic data analysis are provided. One example method may comprise: obtaining first three-dimensional (3D) feature volume data and processing the first 3D feature volume data using an AI engine that includes multiple first processing layers, an interposing forward-projection module and multiple second processing layers. Example processing using the AI engine may involve: generating second 3D feature volume data by processing the first 3D feature volume data using the multiple first processing layers, transforming the second 3D volume data into 2D feature data using the forward-projection module and generating analysis output data by processing the 2D feature data using the multiple second processing layers.
