Hi,
The CM regression module uses LU & QR decomposition and basic matrix operations 
like multiply, add/subtract, transpose, inverse, as well as functionalities 
like getting a submatrix, getting dimensions etc…. All of which EJML provides 
as far as I’ve looked. But I also expect there to be perhaps large differences 
in the port due to Streams….

Cheers,
-Ben

Not exactly; I suggested that
1. there be an interface defined in [Statistics] for matrix that would
shield its API
from a future change of its implementation. [Now it can be a subclass of EJML,
but what if we want to change later?  Do we want to support an external API
even when it's not used to perform the computations?]
2. utilities (like the matrix interface) that can be used by several modules
of [Statistics] are best defined in a separate (maven) module.

Which matrix functionalities are needed for the "regression" module?

You could get the answer by looking at the [Math] codes.
