Can one make a one-to-one correspondence of such numbers to a copyrighted work of art?

The way these types of networks function results in the generation of wholly unique, never before seen images. I guarantee you will never find a single copyrighted work of art that is generated by a model like this.
It seems then that the closest analog is the network is a derived work then.
Arguably it's a derived work in the same way that a person developing a taste for art after looking at thousands of images and then going and painting their own original creation is.
