Autocomplete search for string not ordering results correctly #30

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

The search taxonomy action doesnt appear the retrieve the correct results.
If you try human three unrelated results are returned.

Are you talking about the auto-complete box?

as long as 'homo sapiens' appears in the results list, this is ok? as it 
stands, the
query is just looking for the string 'human' anywhere in the taxonomy &
taxonomy_synonym tables.

Ok, confirmed from Matthew – this is the autocompleter bug where human isn't 
the first result in the search. 
This is down to the searches for a particular string eg "human" aren't weighted 
properly.

Possible fix in rev 1511, needs testing to see if it delivers "expected" 
results and if the speed is good.

I have a possible working fix for this in my local repository; again will get it
pulled when your all back.  

I think the main issue is that there are a lot of taxa within the NCBI Entrez
Taxonomy which are highly unlikely to ever be annotated within the Eurocarb 
database.
Therefore I propose that we rank according to known proteome size; based on 
UniProtKB
entry counts.  I've tested this new system on lots of Eukaryotes and 
Prokaryotes and
so far it has always returned what I was expecting.  The new system will also 
work
with superkingdoms, domains etc..
