contents Affective states regulate our day to day to function and has a tremendous effect on mental and physical health. Detection of affective states is of utmost importance for mental health monitoring, smart entertainment selection and dynamic workload management. In this paper, we discussed relevant literature on affective state detection using physiology data, the benefits and limitations of different sensors and methods used for collecting physiology data, and our rationale for selecting functional near-infrared spectroscopy. We present the design of an experiment involving nine subjects to evoke the affective states of meditation, amusement and cognitive load and the results of the attempt to classify using machine learning. A mean accuracy of 83.04% was achieved in three class classification with an individual model; 84.39% accuracy was achieved for a group model and 60.57% accuracy was achieved for subject independent model using leave one out cross validation. It was found that prediction accuracy for cognitive load was higher (evoked using a pen and paper task) than the other two classes (evoked using computer bases tasks). To verify that this discrepancy was not due to motor skills involved in the pen and paper task, a second experiment was conducted using four participants and the results of that experiment has also been presented in the paper.
