All, I'm not too handy with geometry, so I'm not even sure this is possible, but I'm looking for an algorithm that will determine the "center" of an irregular shape.
I'm not even sure there is a meaningful definition of a "center", but I'd like to at least find a point that is within the area of the shape. (I realize that with certain shapes, like a donut, this might be an intractible problem), so even some rough approximation would help. In this particular application, the shapes are the areas between the lines created when graphing several time series on a chart (e.g., the price of several stocks, graphed over time) Many thanks in advance for any advice or insights!
