We present Barista, an open-source framework for concurrent speech processing based on the Kaldi speech recognition toolkit and the libcppa actor library. With Barista, we aim to provide an easy-to-use, extensible framework for constructing highly customizable concurrent (and/or distributed) networks for a variety of speech processing tasks. Each Barista network specifies a flow of data between simple actors, concurrent entities communicating by message passing, modeled after Kaldi tools. Leveraging the fast and reliable concurrency and distribution mechanisms provided by libcppa, Barista lets demanding speech processing tasks, such as real-time speech recognizers and complex training workflows, to be scheduled and executed on parallel (and/or distributed) hardware. Barista is released under the Apache License v2.0.

Introduction: In the field of medical listening assessments,accurate transcription and effective cognitive load management are critical for enhancing healthcare delivery. Traditional speech recognition systems, while successful in general applications often struggle in medical contexts where the cognitive state of the listener plays a significant role. These conventional methods typically rely on audio-only inputs and lack the ability to account for the listener's cognitive load, leading to reduced accuracy and effectiveness in complex medical environments.

Objectives: High levels of change are linked to the flexibility between immersion and distancing, as well as to higher levels of therapeutic alliance. This study aims to explore the evolution of flexibility between immersion and distancing throughout the entire therapeutic process and its relationship with therapeutic alliance and depressive symptoms in a clinical case.
Method: We analyzed five sessions of a good outcome case of depression undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy.
Linear incrementality in focus and accentuation processing during sentence production: evidence from eye movements.

Department of Psychology, Renmin University of China, Beijing, China.
Introduction: While considerable research in language production has focused on incremental processing during conceptual and grammatical encoding, prosodic encoding remains less investigated. This study examines whether focus and accentuation processing in speech production follows linear or hierarchical incrementality.
Methods: We employed visual world eye-tracking to investigate how focus and accentuation are processed during sentence production.
Mapping subcortical brain lesions, behavioral and acoustic analysis for early assessment of subacute stroke patients with dysarthria.

Introduction: Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder frequently associated with subcortical damage. However, the precise roles of the subcortical nuclei, particularly the basal ganglia and thalamus, in the speech production process remain poorly understood.
Methods: The present study aimed to better understand their roles by mapping neuroimaging, behavioral, and speech data obtained from subacute stroke patients with subcortical lesions.
