Reductionsuch is a theoretical construct used in discussions of reductionism to describe a kind of reduction that keeps only those elements of a system that meet a specified condition, typically expressed as a "such that" clause.
The approach emphasizes predicate-based filtering rather than arbitrary truncation, and it is defined by three components:
Applications: In data science, reductionsuch can define a dataset subset by a predicate; in science modeling,
Examples: Retain records with value above 0.5; keep network nodes with degree > 2; simplify a sentence
Criticism: The choice of predicate is crucial and potentially biased; can omit emergent behavior; not unique;
