        abstract = {A large number of people go missing every single day because of countless reasons such as age, mental conditions or emotional disorder, Alzheimer's disease, etc. Most of them remain untracked and the process to trace the missing person gets fainted. This research paper focuses on well-being of police and public by speeding up the searching process of the lost person. Whenever a new case is filed, their record is stored in the application’s database. When anybody encounters such person, he will capture his picture and search the record in the existing database. If a match is not found, then they can upload the details onto the database (optional: if known) and the current location while uploading will be saved and the case will be informed to the higher authorities. The other case is if the match for the lost person is found, the details from the database will be retrieved and police or the family members will be informed. The accuracy obtained on the face recognition model is 96 %. },
