There is no randomness in i.segments. Given he same input data and settings, results should be identical between runs, i.e. repeatable.

Looking through the code, I do not find such creation of random seeds, though. Is this just me not looking correctly, or aren't there any ? A seed map can be created by randomly selecting pixels, e.g. with r.random. If a seed map is not given, all non-NULL cells are seeds.
