The decomposition of the Kullback-Leibler risk of the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) is discussed in relation to the Stein estimator and the conditional MLE. A notable correspondence between the decomposition in terms of the Stein estimator and that in terms of the conditional MLE is observed. This decomposition reflects that of the expected log-likelihood ratio. Accordingly, it is concluded that these modified estimators reduce the risk by reducing the expected log-likelihood ratio. The empirical Bayes method is discussed from this point of view.
