    Calculate structural similarity between two images.

    This function computes the structural similarity index (SSIM) between two images,
    which measures the similarity of their structural patterns. The SSIM values range
    from -1 to 1, where a higher value indicates greater similarity.

    Parameters:
        im1: Any
            Image 1, which can be provided as a URL, file path, base64 string, numpy array,
            or PIL image.
        im2: Any
            Image 2, which can be provided as a URL, file path, base64 string, numpy array,
            or PIL image.
        width: int, optional
            Width of the resized images for comparison (default is 100).
        height: int, optional
            Height of the resized images for comparison (default is 100).
        interpolation: int, optional
            Interpolation method for resizing (default is cv2.INTER_LINEAR).
        with_alpha: bool, optional
            Whether to include alpha channel if present (default is False).

    Returns:
        tuple
            A tuple containing four SSIM values in the order (B, G, R, Alpha).

    Compare a list of images with each other and return a similarity matrix.

    This function compares a list of images with each other using the `calculate_simlilarity`
    function and returns a similarity matrix as a pandas DataFrame. Each element in the matrix
    represents the similarity between two images.

    Parameters:
        imagelist: list
            List of images to compare. Each image can be provided as a URL, file path, base64 string,
            numpy array, or PIL image.
        width: int, optional
            Width of the resized images for comparison (default is 100).
        height: int, optional
            Height of the resized images for comparison (default is 100).
        interpolation: int, optional
            Interpolation method for resizing (default is cv2.INTER_LINEAR).
        with_alpha: bool, optional
            Whether to include alpha channel if present (default is False).
        delete_cache: bool, optional
            Whether to clear the cache of preprocessed images (default is True).

    Returns:
        pandas.DataFrame
            A DataFrame representing the similarity matrix between the images.
