In recent years, people tend to maintain personal photos in digital spaces not only to share their experiences with social friends but also to jog their own memory. Therefore, an effective solution is crucial to the growth of the needs for recording one's daily life. In this study, we have developed a complete system for personal photo diary system, namely MePTroy. With a friendly user interface, users can easily maintain personal episodes and memories with photos. In addition, we also support a flexible method for photo search based on the position of facial appearance that enables users to access episodes quickly. By integrating face detection and recognition technologies, as well as a friendly UI, MePTory offers diverse functionalities to annotate and search photos.
