ABSTRACT. People use knowledge and commonsense reasoning for daily activities and survival. However, providing machines with such humanly knowledge and commonsense reasoning experiences has remained a vague target of artificial intelligence researchers for years. This report surveys knowledge and commonsense reasoning for Natural Language Processing with the aim of providing an overview of the benchmarks, knowledge resources, state of the art and inference approach toward knowledge and commonsense reasoning for natural language processing.
