        Annotated data matrix.
    groupby: `str` (default: `'clusters'`)
        Key to which to assign the fates.
    disconnected_groups: list of `str` (default: `None`)
        Which groups to treat as disconnected for fate assignment.
    n_neighbors: `int` (default: `None`)
        Number of neighbors to restrict transitions to.
