Many good solutions above, and I can provide a different way that no one mention before. This example uses array. I use this method on my project Shieldon Firewall.

/**
 * Covert string with dashes into camel-case string.
 *
 * @param string $string A string with dashes.
 *
 * @return string
 */
function getCamelCase(string $string = '')
{
    $str = explode('-', $string);
    $str = implode('', array_map(function($word) {
        return ucwords($word); 
    }, $str));

    return $str;
}

Test it:

echo getCamelCase('This-is-example');

Result:

ThisIsExample
