optimization. Rademacher random variables are used in the Symmetrization Inequality. Related distributions Bernoulli distribution: If X has a Rademacher distribution, then has a Bernoulli(1/2) distribution. Laplace distribution: If X has a Rademacher distribution and Y ~ Exp(λ) is independent from X, then XY ~ Laplace(0, 1/λ).
