One comment, if you'd like install quite a lot stuff on liveusb, you can make 
it by creating image with --overlay-size-mb set to a big value such as 256

Are you asking how software (in general) is installed (i.e. using yum to
install rpms from a yum repository), or just how to persist changes made
on a live image?

I'm guessing the second... 

The 'liveusb' style images persist filesystem changes on the USB key, so
as long as you are not installing too much then you just yum install (or
manually install a file or rpm from some other source) just like you
would if you had installed the image.
