This lecture covers the analysis of real-time data, focusing on the significant information extracted from ongoing events through examples like Twitter trends during key events in 2011. It also delves into the challenges posed by the rapid growth of data compared to our cognitive abilities, the estimation theoretic data mining problem, information distillation in social sensing, and reconstructing event timelines using methods like the Apollo Fact-finder.
