commas - Implicit "that/which is/are" in nonrestrictive relative clause

Is it grammatically correct to leave off "that is" or "which is" in a nonrestrictive relative clause? Is there a term for this? Is this actually a different phenomenon? It (sometimes?) seems to apply to the whole sentence, not any individual noun. For example:




Today I [verb], (which is) [comparative adjective] than [gerund].







I have [object], (which is) [comparative adjective] than [object].








I have [object], (which is) [comparative adjective] than [subject].
