/**
 * Returns 3 arrays for traversing the taxonomy:
 *
 * 
 *   {@code parents}: {@code parents[i]} denotes the parent of category ordinal {@code i}.
 *   
{@code children}: {@code children[i]} denotes a child of category ordinal {@code i}.
 *   
{@code siblings}: {@code siblings[i]} denotes the sibling of category ordinal {@code i}.
 * 
 *
 * To traverse the taxonomy tree, you typically start with {@code children[0]} (ordinal 0 is
 * reserved for ROOT), and then depends if you want to do DFS or BFS, you call {@code
 * children[children[0]]} or {@code siblings[children[0]]} and so forth, respectively.
 *
 * NOTE: you are not expected to modify the values of the arrays, since the arrays are
 * shared with other threads.
