what controls the order of UMLS linked entities from scispacy if the scores are all 1

[charliejeynes]

i'm using Scispacy (which is awesome!) but when I type 'tau' into the app found here https://scispacy.apps.allenai.org/ the UMLS entity gives me the canonical name of 'MAPT gene' which is what I want. But when I do the exact same thing in my python code based on the app code (see here https://gist.github.com/DeNeutoy/b20860b40b9fa9d33675893c56afde42) the first canonical name on the list is 'uridine triacetate' (the second is 'MAPT gene')

in the app code there is the call 'if show_only_top:break' so I assume somehow their app implementation orders the linked entities differently.

if someone can explain the difference in ordering and how to fix that would be great thanks!!

PS this is also posted on stackoverflow - before I thought to post here!

I think the reason for this difference might be the same as in #342 - they are running a different version in the demo and if you use an older one you might get a different ordering / result

OK makes sense thanks a lot - for the moments, I've just written a workaround
