It is not very clear what you want this list to learn from these links. They
are the CVs of three persons connected with biometrics research at IIITD,
and says nothing about what the results of their work are in relation to
actually establishing biometrics as valid indicators of uniqueness for large
scale populations. Attempts to do this have failed signally in countries
around the world. The reason is that biometric sensing devices and their
related software are unable to resolve individuals with sufficient accuracy,
creating unacceptable levels of failure, both in false positives and in
false negatives. Despite this, UIDAI is going ahead enrolling people for
registration of UIDs (using proprietary software and hardware), achieving
appallingly low 'successful' registrations.

These three CVs do not reflect this fact.
