Thanks for the example. Have you tried fitting a principal curve via either the princurve or pcurve packages? I think this might work for what you want, but no guarantees. Note that loess, splines, etc. are all fitting y|x, that is, a nonparametric regression of y on x. That is not what you say

Your immediate problem seems to be that you use "sum" as a variable name when it is also a function name.
