Abstract
We review chessboard distributions for modeling partially specified finite-dimensional random vectors. Chessboard distributions can match a given set of marginals, a given covariance structure, and various other constraints on the distribution of a random vector. It is necessary to solve a potentially large linear program to set up a chessboard distribution, but random vectors can then be rapidly generated
