Oct 29, 2019 at 13:40 comment added Giuseppe Negro One way of extracting the period of a function is taking the Fourier transform, see for example this signal processing post. You get a Dirac comb, the width of which is inversely proportional to the period. This operation is continuous, because the compact-open convergence implies convergence as a tempered distribution. However, I don't know if this is useful for you.
