8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is programmed to:
upon a determination that the attribute information concerning the characters representing the proper noun is identical to the attribute information concerning the characters located near the proper noun on the document, determine that the attribute of the proper noun is the provider.
9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is programmed to determine whether the attribute of the proper noun is the provider or the receiver by referring to a position of the proper noun on the document.
10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the processor is programmed to:
upon a determination that the proper noun is positioned at or near the head of the document, determine that the attribute of the proper noun is the receiver.
11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the processor is programmed to:
