The representation of functions by artificial neural networks depends on a large number of parameters in a non-linear fashion. Suitable parameters of these are found by minimizing a 'loss functional', typically by stochastic gradient…

We study the Navier-Stokes equations on a smooth bounded domain $D\subset \mathbb R^d$ ($d=2$ or 3), under the effect of an additive fractional Brownian noise. We show local existence and uniqueness of a mild $L^p$-solution for $p>d$.
