Recently, there was some discussion about higher order nets
and the difficulty of realizing multiplication using neural
mechanisms. One possibility I suggested was that of doing
multiplication through convolution in frequency domain.

Some people asked me for a reference to some paper showing
the use of frequency domain operations in "real brains". Here
is one:
