Traditional univariate drought indices may not be sufficient to reflect comprehensive information on drought. Therefore, this paper proposes a new composite drought index that can comprehensively characterize meteorological and hydrological drought. In this study, the new drought index was established by combining the standardized precipitation index (SPI) and the standardized baseflow index (SBI) for the Jiaojiang River Basin (JRB) using the copula function. The prediction model was established by training random forests on past data, and the driving force behind the combined drought index was explored through the lime algorithm. The results show that the established composite drought index combines the advantages of SPI and SBI in drought forecasting. The monthly and annual droughts in the JRB showed an increasing trend from 1991 to 2020, but the temporal characteristics of the changes in each subregion were different. The accuracies of the trained random forest model for heavy drought in Baizhiao (BZA) and Shaduan (SD) stations were 83% and 88%, respectively. Furthermore, the Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (lime) interpretation identified the essential precipitation, baseflow, and evapotranspiration features that affect drought. This study provides reliable and valid multivariate indicators for drought monitoring and can be applied to drought prediction in other regions.

Several dereverberation algorithms have been studied. The sampling frequencies used in conventional studies are typically 8-16 kHz because their main purpose is preprocessing for improving the intelligibility of speech communication and articulation for automatic speech recognition. However, in next-generation communication systems, techniques to analyze and reproduce not only semantic information of sound but also more high-definition components such as spatial information and directivity will be increasingly necessary. To decompose these sound field characteristics with high definition, a dereverberation algorithm that is useful at high sampling frequencies is an important technique to process sound that includes high-frequency spectra such as musical sounds. The LInear-predictive Multichannel Equalization (lime) algorithm is a promising dereverberation method. Using the lime algorithm, however, a dereverberation signal cannot be solved at high sampling frequencies when the source signal is colored, such as in the case of speech and sound of musical signals. Because the rank of the correlation matrix calculated from such a colored signal is not full, the characteristic polynomial cannot be calculated precisely. To alleviate this problem, we propose preprocessing of all input signals with filters to whiten their spectra so that this algorithm can function for colored signals at high sampling frequencies.
