In this paper we examine the challenge of producing ensembles of regression models for large datasets. We generate numerous regression models by concurrently executing multiple independent instances of a genetic programming learner. Each instance may be configured with different parameters and a different subset of the training data. Several strategies for fusing predictions from multiple regression models are compared. To overcome the small memory size of each instance, we challenge our framework to learn from small subsets of training data and yet produce a prediction of competitive quality after fusion. This decreases the running time of learning which produces models of good quality in a timely fashion. Finally, we examine the quality of fused predictions over the progress of the computation.
