A camera-based optical character reader (OCR) for Japanese Kanji characters was implemented on a mobile-phone. This OCR has three key features. The first is discriminative feature extraction (DFE) which enables a character classifier needing only small memory size. The second is a word-segmentation method specially designed for looking up Japanese words in a dictionary. The third feature is a GUI suitable for a mobile-phone. A prototype mobile-phone Kanji OCR was constructed and experimentally tested. Recognition accuracy of over 95% was obtained under the best conditions, which shows the potential of our prototype as a new type of electronic dictionary.
