I've never used EJML, but the formula for matrix covariance
<http://stattrek.com/matrix-algebra/variance.aspx>
looks like it can be implemented using
<http://efficient-java-matrix-library.googlecode.com/svn/javadoc/ver0.16/org/ejml/alg/dense/mult/VectorVectorMult.html#innerProd(org.ejml.data.D1Matrix64F, 
org.ejml.data.D1Matrix64F)>

or some higher-level method, given that that particular method warns, "These 
functions are often used inside of highly optimized code and therefor sanity 
checks are kept to a minimum. It is not recommended that any of these 
functions be used directly."

I just snooped around the EJML Javadocs for a minute.  You can likely do better.
