How do I write bicross product symbols in latex?
There are commands for the top two symbols ltimes and rtimes, however I have not been able to find commands for the other 4 symbols. Is there a simple way that I could create commands for these symbols?

Just combine existing symbols:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{amssymb}
begin{document}
$blacktrianglerightmathrel{mkern-4mu}<$,
$>mathrel{mkern-4mu}blacktriangleleft$,
$blacktrianglerightjoinrelmathrel{triangleleft}$,
$mathrel{triangleright}joinrelblacktriangleleft$
end{document}
joinrel is defined (robustly) as mathrel{mkern-3mu}. It's enough for the last two symbols; for the first two a slighlty larger value of 4mu looks better to me.
As a matter of fact, ltimes and rtimes do not yield the "unsymmetric" symbols in your picture. They can be similarly obtained joining </ > with triangleleft/triangleright.
$>joinrelmathrel{triangleleft}$ vs. $rtimes$
$mathrel{triangleright}joinrel<$ vs. $ltimes$
My fantasy isn't rich enough to come up with names for all these ;-)

This takes campa's answer (+1) and makes an enhancement/alteration: it scales the result downward to occupy the same vertical footprint as the letter x.
Like campa's result, it works across math styles.
The MWE:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{mathtools,amssymb,scalerel}
newcommandbicrossl{%
mathrel{scalerel*{mathrel{triangleright}joinrelblacktriangleleft}{x}}}
newcommandbicrossr{%
mathrel{scalerel*{blacktrianglerightjoinrelmathrel{triangleleft}}{x}}}
newcommandbiopencrossl{%
mathrel{scalerel*{>kern-.4LMptjoinrelblacktriangleleft}{x}}}
newcommandbiopencrossr{%
mathrel{scalerel*{blacktrianglerightjoinrelkern-.4LMpt<}{x}}}
begin{document}
$xbicrossr y$ and $xbicrossl y$,
$xbiopencrossr y$ and $xbiopencrossl y$,
$scriptstyle xbicrossr y$ and $scriptstyle xbicrossl y$,
$scriptstyle xbiopencrossr y$ and $scriptstyle xbiopencrossl y$,
