This paper presents an innovative algorithmic technique for dimension reduction, leveraging Rademacher series in conjunction with dual BCH codes. The proposed method effectively removes redundancy from data by employing a sampling strategy that measures the concentration phenomenon. We address the challenge of finding effective random projections from high-dimensional spaces (Rd) to lower dimensions (Rk) with controlled distortion. The results not only improve computational efficiency but also enhance the handling of random bits in the dimension reduction process, offering significant advancements over traditional techniques.
