Visualize fate probabilities in a circular embedding [Jaitin et al., 2014, Velten et al., 2017].

We arrange all computed terminal states evenly spaced around the unit circle and place cells inside the unit circle in a way that reflects their fate probabilities. In other words, the more certain we are that a cell will transition towards a given terminal state, the closer we place it to that terminal state. Uncommitted cells thus reside in the middle of the circle.
