Abstract: In one embodiment, in a financial institution, a method is provided for managing corporate action information of at least one entity. The method includes receiving data associated with at least one corporate action of at least one of the entities, wherein the corporate action data includes data associated with at least one of a voluntary corporate action and a mandatory corporate action; matching at least a portion of the corporate action data to at least one client of the financial institution; generating at least one notification including at least a portion of the corporate action data; and, performing at least one workflow management activity in connection with generating the notification including the corporate action data. System and computer-readable media embodiments are also provided.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for determining the predictability of an element in a weather radar image. An image filter approximating the envelope of the organized storm radar image is applied to a pixel in a received weather radar image to generate a processed pixel value. A variability value is determined from the variation in the pixel values of the neighboring pixels which lie within the image filter. The predictability is generated from the processed pixel value and the variability. Pixels having high processed pixel values and low variabilities typically correspond to pixels within a strong organized storm and, therefore, are more predictable. Pixels having low processed pixel values and high variabilities, such as pixels representative of airmass storms, generally have lower predictabilities.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for tracking of organized storms using weather radar images. An image filter approximating the envelope of the organized storm radar image is used to improve tracking of the large scale storm features. The image filter is repeatedly rotated to different orientations at each point in the weather radar images to produce filtered images. The filtered images are provided to an image tracker to generate an array of track vectors. Application of the array of track vectors to the unfiltered image generates a predicted weather radar image.
