With billions of active social media accounts and millions of live video cameras, live new big data offer many opportunities for smart applications. However, the main consumers of the new big data have been humans. We envision the research on live knowledge, to automatically acquire real-time, validated, and actionable information. Live knowledge presents two significant and diverging technical challenges: big noise and concept drift. We describe the EBKA (evidence-based knowledge acquisition) approach, illustrated by the LITMUS landslide information system. LITMUS achieves both high accuracy and wide coverage, demonstrating the feasibility and promise of EBKA approach to achieve live knowledge.
